I can't choose a favourite because I have different moods. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Next, gradually increase the tempo. Eventually you'll be flailing like a madman.

Two mind blowing guitarists...two different styles...very hard to choose. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I don't think gilbert could replicate Vai's style as well as Vai could replicate Gilberts. Gilbert is Easier to cover for an advanced guitarist I'm Sure.. Everything he does is like an exercise.
