That finger synchronization is unbelievable, it's an honor and a privilege to be able to see it!

[brandoagusti]

If you don't win I will sue Abasi Concepts.

[robdavenport]

This is my personal favourite. The speed is absolutely ridiculous, but it’s the cleanness, fluidity, feel and sheer inventiveness that I can’t get over. In short, it gives me goosebumps!

[ka_iden]

That doubling of the note at 0:34 gives me the shivers, such an amazing player

[cxo]

You definitely deserve the exposure you beast!

[kyatzz]

I usually have a good grasp of what someone is playing when I hear or see it. This left me completely clueless and speechless. You are insane.

[LifeHawkeye]

I’ve played guitar for over 35 years and my mind doesn’t even construct thoughts that quickly and fluidly as this young man’s playing. Incredible.

[uncleremus]

Meader incredible, he reminds me of Shawn Lane! Unreal talent.

[TitoSilversax]

Some insane licks going on here, but most of all I love the zen monk level concentration his face emanates ... like a true Jedi guitarist 😁

[SamDeuda]

I still come back to this every now and then. damn so good!

[WayneConnaughton]

Jesus.. this is one of the sickest things I've seen/heard in a long time. Amazing articulation, control, timing, sense of melody, rhythm, phrasing, intensity and dare I say it..'feel'. You've got it all.

[MBesh]

This is really great;

Getting a Shawn Lane vibe with Allan Holdsworth moderation.

[darkie]

Quite possibly one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

[adamk]

I’ll say it again, I think Josh Meader is the best guitarist alive

[tomoskar]

Sensational effort and unbelievable technique....hats off, even if the top gong went to another of you amazing young talents. Keep doing what you want and dream to do....and never let them take it away from you.

[gauravlama]

You are the modern Shawn Lane in the Guitar man 🎸🙏🏻🙏🏻 What a beautiful sounding guitar phrases and techniques you have. Have not seen anyone else like you man. Big fan from 🇮🇳 India.
Cheers 🎸🤘🏻

[markpfeffer]

Spicy dude. Your metal chops borrow so tastefully from your jazz chops. This is nuts

[austinstricklin]

I hope you win this. I've been so impressed with how smooth your playing is in your videos, and honestly jealous. Keep it up!

[MrRuneberre]

Ha-ha! 😀 Ridiculously good playing! Great, Joshua! 👍

[isthathingsharp]

I need to be going to bed but this right here got me hyped up! Hell yeah that guy is a beast
