Favourite Guitarist
Zingoleb:
I've been giving this a lot of thought lately, and I can't peg one. I like such WIDE varieties of music, and no one seems to do them all. Karl Sanders is great at what he does, and Stevie Ray Vaughan was great at what he did, but the two aren't really comparable.
Thinking about it, the only guitarist I can think of that has enough variety (bluegrass; hard rock; blues; Eastern) for me would probably be Jimmy Page, but he has many issues with timing as I've heard.
So I will ponder this further. Constantly. I will lie on my deathbed, surrounded by my loved ones, my insides rotting out, listening to an iPod going, "Dammit, this guy sucks, too!" and my wife will be telling me she loves me and I'll tell her not now, I'm busy, and then I'll die, still unsatisfied with my lack of knowledge...
Or not.
Patrick:
Page can have perfect timing if he feels like it. But during his ridiculously fast solos, he just doesn't give a shit. See also: Hendrix.
Zingoleb:
That's the problem. During his ridiculously fast solos, he doesn't have the same structure. It sounds good at times, but sometimes (See: Heartbreaker) it just feels sloppy.
As for Hendrix...I have a best of and Band of Gypsys, and that's pretty much all I need. Most of his other stuff can get sort of 'eh' at times.

An old dude that looks kickass, so what?
