Yes, very good way of putting it! The best ive ever heard is Dave Murray and Steve Vai. Dave and Steve just have that soul in there playing that makes me just....feel good, i love there style, there are my 2 biggest influences. An Honorable Mention though is Bob Zabek, incredible Music, unbeliveable tone, amazing abilties, just a PERFECT guitarist. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It gets kinda subjective Hardtail Hardtail...I know exactly what you mean. Gilmore is one of those guitarists who definitley makes his guitar speak words. As far as shredding goes, IMO, I prefer it to be done as PART of a solo, but I dont care for it being played for the ENTIRE solo. I feel like the guitar is screaming at me, like there is alot of angst involved. I hate someone screaming at me, I would rather hear words, like Gilmore or Carlos Santana You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Petrucci- Technically he has it going on. In the world of melodic shred he is among my favorites. You can tell he puts alot of time into his music and basically has it figured out how he is going to phrase and what not without hesitation. Paul Gilbert- No one and I mean No one accents there speed runs better then Paul gilbert, besides maybe rusty cooley. But Paul has opened up doors in the world of shred guitar,and hes one of those artists I can keep watching videos of and not get bored. Yngwie Malmsteen- Well most of you dont like him but I for one do. He may be the most arrogant guitar player, but he sure as heck can back it up. He was one of the main original Neo-Classical guitar players. Satch-Hes just godly, what else to say ? Steve Vai- I think overall steve vai is among the best today. Tell me the first time any of you watched tender surrender your werent like, WOW Marcus Lavendell- We are lucky to have a teacher on the site with a gigantic tone and massive technique Muris- Muris is truely a gifted man, his vast versitlity and wide arrange of tones and what not makes him another amazing addition to the site - John You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Also is there somewhere I can have a listen to this thing you are talking about or was it just a private thing? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
