I'm more of a Steve Vai kind of guy when it comes to guitar players.

Ditto...I like Vai's style and sound..he's really out there.

I'd like him even more if he didn't act like a homo with the faces and gay moves when he's wailing

Since we're talking about a guitarist here, and many of you seem to play guitar... has anybody here checked out the Axe Fx?

this guys music is generally pretty weird and i dont get into it too much (with the exception of a couple masterpieces), but as a guitarist id say he is overall the best in the world.

Vai is amazing but I'm sure the best guitar player in the world is probably playing in some shitty club right now just waiting to be discovered.

It looks like an outboard FX processor. Nothing special. Do you absolutely NEED an outboard piece of gear for gigging or are you just feeling like you need it? If it's the latter, sit it out.

I used to swear by amps, tube and solid-state alike. I'm more than fine with software nowadays. I still have a few amps and combos, but they get less and less play by the day.

Almost always, yes.

IMO there is no "best" guitar player...depends on what you like. there are thousands of guys who are technical freaks and can do anything with a guitar

Perfect example....my brother was having his house painted, and the painter happened to notice my bros electric sitting there. So he asks if he can pick it up and proceeds to crack off some seriously insane shit while he's still talking to us

thats the cool thing about today...back in the day the only way to hear a guitarist was to hear their album, or to see them personally. the great players like Eddie van halen were looked at like Gods and left most people thinking they were some kind of superhumans who were famous because they could do things no one else could....nowadays we have youtube and we can see that there are literally tens of thousands of random people out there who are just as talented as the 'stars'. kind of puts a damper on their mystique and sense of awe when you realise theres 12,000 dudes playing in their rooms somewhere who are just as good as the 'stars'.

Isn't it mandatory for all great guitarists to all that weird shit with their mouth?  SRV, Hendrix, Page, etc... ;D

What a fag - musclewise.
His play is cool - somewhat cheesy.
Technique is stellar.

LOL.

Yeah but they were cool looking, Vai looks like a geek and prances around like a cross between Liberace and a runway model
