Amazing guitarist
Been playing guitar for a few years now ( badly ) and have always found guitarists like satriani , vai , Hendrix ect amazing
But a mate recently sent me this link And for an acoustic I think this guy ranks among the best I've seen Take a look see what you guys reckon |
That song is sapping my will to live. Good fretwork though.

IMO best cover of a song ever. Guy was blind from 11 months old and plays like a legend. And if youre not a fan of covers, check out pretty much anything else the guy has done. Such a top bloke hes collaberated with Dire Straits, Deep Purple, Stevie Ray Vaughn, ZZ Top, BB King, Clapton. Not to mention all the people who have played live in his bar in Canada just out of respect for what is a quality musician who is so underated and unknown. Its a travesty everytime I hear someone say theyve never heard of him. |
My kids are learning the guitar and sometimes look on youtube to listen to guitarist as suggested by their tutor and I thought this guy sounds pretty amazing on the guitar.
|
Lovely. |
go on youtube and watch a young kid called sunga jung play ....mind blowing
|
this guy is amazing on the guitar,his skills are un-matched
|
this is an amazing guitar player:

Dominic Miller, Sting's guitarist & soloist, brilliant classic or rock.

if you like blues check out his album hot wires on youtube also:Roy Buchanan - Hot Wires - YouTube that did it is a favourite. the blues lover is awsome too. Hey Joe as a tribute to Jimi is fantastic and check out When the Messiah Comes Again and Roys Bluz Very sad when he had an early death in a cell with possible police involvement. David PS. And here's one we made before :) http://www.jameslockmusic.com/Ocean.mp3 |
This one always amazes me |
roy was an awsome player for sure but was a tortured soul and there was some history with fairfax police and questions over his death but it doesnt take away from the fact the man was a genius with a telecaster in his hand!

heres a legend on the guitar,you might not dig the music but there is no question about his talent
R.I.P |
I've seen that video before Toneh, and I like how he has grown his finger nails on the one hand and cut them to a point :lol1:
For some reason, I really like this and think his skills are awesome: |

not really my type of stuff, pantera are a bit too death thrash for me but he was a good player at what he did. check out steve hillage:

The tapping , hammer on electric solo style has been done to death now and I find it very old hat , it was ok in the eighties when Eddie van halen , vai , satriani was doing it ,
I just find a decent guy with an acoustic and very little effects musically more appealing , maybe it's because I'm getting old Btw from a guitar playing point of view ( not song writing ) the most overrated guitarist of all time has got to be Neil young , me and my mates swear to god he cannot be serious when he plays a solo , absolutely awfull noise |
Pfft, a guitar thread without the master?
....or the man I recently met.... |
I think it goes without saying Hendrix is gonna be one of the all time greats , I like dave gilmour's style a lot , most of it sounds so simple and layed back but is very effective,
One of my all time favourites has got to be , shine on you crazy diamond , a proper classic I think sometimes less is more |

I find technical skill and soul can be different things when it comes to guiter playing, for raw acoustic skill then justin king has to be one of the best I ever.
Personally I prefer the music of rodrigo Y gabriella |
