This guy is simply the best, probably the best I have heard

[Bruce954]

Good, yes. The best, no.

 

[yefferys50]

Definitely not the best. It's easy to play something someone has already written, the truly great guitarists are the one's who write something new and crazy.

 

[mike79]

Good, not the best by far.

Does anyone know where to get the songs w/o the guitar?

 

[ampstang]

He's really good, but I've heard people who are a lot better. One being my lead guitarist.

 

[pan7eraboyca]

He is ok. I played with a guy who would knock off pretty well any song or solo after hearing it for the first time. Vai/Satriani stuff included. Crazy guitar/Piano/Bass/Drums/Vocals whatever.

He plays in a cover band in Japan to 2000 people a night now.

Impressive... but for from the best.

I am more impressed with guys that can play the acoustic!!!

[Blade Runner]

My vote is for Kirk Hammett:

YouTube - 4 solos by Kirk Hammett

I almost included Kirk....What about Gilby Clarke?

 

[AssPikle]

Kirk makes it look so easy:

I also like Clapton

 

[Grizzly Adams]

SRV and Jimi are the all time best.

Tom Morello is easily the most innovative guitarist of our time though.

 

[BCP]

Definitely not the best. It's easy to play something someone has already written, the truly great guitarists are the one's who write something new and crazy.

x2!
