Agreed! Yngwie Malmsteen is mind blowing!
-
This is pretty crazy heavy metal guitaring!
-
no way he is the greatest, not even top 20. I always got the feeling that he is playing sloppy, missing the attack peaks. You can compare him to Gilbert, as example of ideal accuracy, if you got ears, you'll hear it.
-
He's in the best shape.

Weird. There's another hotshot guitarist with a similar name, Malmsteen.
-

Oh, yeah. His heart attack proved it.
-
Lynch is a unique and talented player, no doubt. One of his era's best. But again, how can any one musician be "the best"?
Is there a way to quantify this?

To paraphrase A.J. Liebling: no more virtuosic guitarist is as lyrical, and no more lyrical guitarist is as virtuosic.

Terrific. Thanks. But ...
There is no way to quantify one as being "the best".

George Lynch is awesome but Iommi makes him sound positively Homo.
-
Malmsteen should have gone into comedy he is so funny. Like a Yiddish nightmare come to life.
-
Yes, Lynch was one of the Best!
-
this video always blew my mind more than any other, regarding guitar work.
if it doesn't seem impressive at first, just keep watching...

holy shit

HGH hands

Once guitarists reach the rank of God, there is no "best", just "different".
The only rank above "God" is "Legend", and you can only reach "Legend" once you die, notable exceptions being EVH and Clapton.
For Example -
Mamlsteen = Neo-classical god
Wylde = Southern Metal god
Clapton = Classic Rock/Blues god/Legend
SRV = Blues god/Legend
etc, etc, etc

eric clapton

Here is my list not in any particular order! Van Halen, Vai , Lynch , Rhodes, Dimebag, Satriani, Malmsteen, Friedman, Hendrix, Wylde, Jake E Lee and Sykes! Some of my favorites !
-
Lynch is a bodybuilder too, so that makes him super cool.
But greatest metal guitarist he is not.

More like this - too many to chose from.
e.g.: I like the guitarist Gordon(Exploited) because his stuff is a treat - dense and efficient.

Zzzzzz

Malmsteen.
plays that clean and fast on a high actioned, single coiled, scalloped, 21 fretted, POS fender.
sure he's been replicated but he is the original.

NEWSFLASH! George is not a bodybuilder.

NEWSFLASH! George is not a bodybuilder.
He's said so himself and Don Dokken has also said Lynch used steroids.
HTH
-
No disrespect....but, I saw George in person 6 months ago...not a bodybuilder..no more a bodybuilder than a male physique competitor..taking steroids does not make one a bodybuilder.
-
Malmsteen can sure play the guitar, but he's not exactly god's gift to songwriting. His first album was excellent but after that...
Therefore, he's not greatest heavy metal guitarist.
If I had to say who can both play the guitar and write a mean tune...
Glenn Tipton/K.K Downing
Kerry King/Jeff Hanneman
Dave Mustaine
Trey Azagthoth
Chuck Schuldiner
-
Oh for fuck's sake son, don't start playing semantics with me... Lynch lifted weights to modify his physique in the past = bodybuilding. I didn't say he competed in the New York Pro.
Our definitions differ....google "bodybuilding images"....good luck finding one that matches yours...enjoy your day

There aren't many bbs at 6'5 so I'm sure I won't find any
leaving the ad hominem aside, you clown, what is your definition of bodybuilding? Must be strigent indeed.
Resorting to name calling already? and you call me the assclown? BTW....Lynch is 5'10 1/2"
-

You started it with your cheap irony... never mind Lynch's height, what is that strict definition of bodybuilding that you go by?

You can add all those guys to my list love them all! Hendrix stated before he died , that he loved Terry Kaths playing!

Bodybuilding is using resistance training (and whatever else) in order to cause maximum muscle hypertrophy of all muscle groups/bodyparts; may or may not be for the purpose of competition.
Now tear me up...
-
For the record I agree with the Metal Guitarists listed....so many!
-
Dimebag
DBD DESTROYS ALL
RIP
5 MIN ALONE

Kurt Cobain was p4p the best.

Yes Dimebag, too. Great songwriter and a fucking excellent shredder, too.

Not much anymore, but at one time he very much was about building his body with muscles.

ray's definition is better... by yours i guess frank zane isn't a bodybuilder, nor anyone who ever held back and stopped shy of 10g/week anabolics, as that wouldn't really be the pursuit of "maximum" muscle hypertrophy?

blackmore couldn't play like yngwie

Im assuming thats your rig?
I sold off all my gear, thinking of getting a 5150 or 6505 for my amp when I finish school, but I always found them a little... muddy I guess, for my playing style. My last amp was a VHT pitbull, which had excellent clarity even at ridiculous gain levels.
I ran a Maxon 808 overdrive with the gain turned down and the level turned up quite a bit, with a Jackson RR1 w/EMG's (81 and 85), in the pitbull with a Marshall vintage celestion loaded cab.

One of them, yeah. I own a whack of guitars, amps and effects. My scratch track here was recorded with my POD direct into the pc. Actually used my PRS instead of the Mustaine V too..lol. I modded my 5150 ii and run through the usual eq/tube screamer/compression combo when I use it.
Buddy of mine just picked up a Hughes & Kettner that just kills.

Ah, I never really used an EQ/TS/Compressor together... Ive used a comp before when I was running my rack setup... towards the end of my gigging days I just used the TS in front. Im assuming the compressor/eq used with the TS gives you that more balanced, flat tone across range than running just the TS alone?

Absolutely. The eq gives you a lot of control over your sound as well. These I run into the front end and then I run all my other coloring effects through the loop.

I dont care if you like my definition or not....but everyone who touches a weight, with the hope of putting on some muscle is not a bodybuilder. Just because I touch a basketball, with the hope of putting the ball in the basket, does not make me a basketball player.
Would anyone consider a person who goes to the gym 3 days a week and only trains chest and arms a bodybuilder? I don't.
Trying to be a bodybuilder and being a bodybuilder are 2 different things. If you have to tell someone you are a bodybuilder....you arent one.
Have a great day! Rock & Roll!!!

Yes they are, especially if they manage to build some muscle and build up their bodyparts.
Bodybuilder = Someone who is building up his/her body.

Umm...ok....so I guess you consider that Jersey Shore Situation a bber?
-
Shredders are impressive when you're a teenager. But fuck, I find it incredibly boring now. I'd rather listen to John Abercrombie all day long. It's way harder to play music than to play just notes.

No, he's a girl.
