This is the quality filming that Yngwie deserves. High quality camera and audio, really makes his story shine.

Worked as stage assistant for him in 2007 and it was one of the best days in my life. He is a real professional and a very kind person. Forget the ego bullshit, he is a perfectionist. As soon as things are in the way he needs for his show, he becomes a very gentle giant. And damn, he is tall.

[WhalerGA]

Wow, looks like Yngwie is really taking care of himself. Glad to see it !! We want our guitar heroes to live forever !!

Watching Yngwie play the Strat is like watching Thor the Thunder God wield Mjolnir.

You can’t imagine one without the other.

I´m listening to him all my life and I so appreciate that he stayed true to himself.
He is a real artist, creating his own genre with a passion that is combined with a major talent and a gazillion hours of practicing.
He will never be surpassed.

I love how he genuinely loves talking bout his Strats.... his smile is so genuine! What a great and unique player!

[ViscusLupus]

Say what you want about him, you can like him or not, but even today, after almost 20 years from the start of You Tube, after watching hundreds of thousands of videos with guitarists of different ages and from all over the world, his style is inimitable! Any enthusiast of this music who wakes up in the middle of the night after 3 seconds will immediately recognize the song - yeah that's Yngwie! The smoothness of him playing arpeggios and sweeps is still unbeatable.

[Varchesis]

Only person who deserves a signature is someone who can tell you how the instrument has evolved over the years and why it's special to them.
Always great to hear

Yngwie is the BOSS!
I'M 74 and been digging your style since you were young!

Yngwie looks great! In fact, he has been looking great for close to 20 years now. God bless him! Love his playing!

[imienazvvisko]

Years are passing Yngwie, and you still have enthusiasm and happieness of little child while talking about guitars or playing them. That's what makes you the best, at least for me.

I am 50 years old, and I listen to Yngwie since 1984. I have never stopped listening to him and will never stop. For me, there is no argument that he is the best electric guitar player. This is for #Fender Yngwie J. Malmsteen is the reason ı like Fender Stratocaster guitars. He is the reference line for the rock music. Lots of things changed. Bands changed their music styles to remain relevant. Yngwie has always been there for true listeners with his unique style. So many people will not agree with me, I know, but for me, Yngwie is the biggest Fender Stratocaster player.

Along with Hendrix and Van Halen, Yngwie is one of the most inspiring rock guitarists of the last 50 years 🤘🏼👍🏼

[davidcotton]

One of the greatest guitarists of all time! Probably the greatest vibrato of all time! No one else combines so much technique with so much passion and feel, and created their own instantly recognisable sound. Black Star is one of the greatest compositions for guitar ever. What a legend!

[panagiotisexplorer]

I can’t believe it. In a few weeks from now I’m gonna buy the YJM signature and Fender did this video just in time 😍 The Malmsteen stratocaster is the most beautiful guitar ever made. Piece of art!

[bnernganmont]

When he said he was 'so honored' it was his best moment. Humility goes a long way bra. He deserves every ounce of credit and belongs in the pantheon of most influential guitaists of all time.

25 years ago I heard Malmsteen for the first time. I was blown away as I love classical music and also rock and electric guitar. Fast forward to today, and I realise more and more how much I like his music and entertaining, larger than life personality

[emersonvieira]

Really makes me cry!!Remembered when i was a young boy starting in world...in music!!LIVE LONG TO THE Y.J.M THE GOAT LIVE LEGEND!!💪🎸♥️

[AlexMR]

Fenders, Ferraris and Rolexes 🔥Can’t go wrong with any of that ! Yngwie is a legend

Over 30 years ago, I performed 'Far Beyond the Sun' at my high school talent show, earning a standing ovation. Fast forward to my 30th reunion where I caught up with an old friend. She mentioned her 12-year-old son's obsession with a challenging guitar piece by a Swedish artist she couldn't quite pronounce. When I asked, 'Is it Yngwie?' her face lit up. I followed with, 'Is it Far Beyond the Sun?' To her surprise, I showed her a clip I uploaded to YouTube from an old VHS tape of me playing that very song. It's incredible to see Yngwie Malmsteen's work still inspiring new generations, and it's a testament to his enduring talent.
