Who cares about Slash?

Gibson is guitar for pussies anyway... Real men chose Fender.
Gimme some tone man, not that flat soft sleazy characterless effect overloaded Gibson weeping crap.

Re: SLASH is not a good guitar player --->Discussion of the musically inclined only, no n00bs
A few years back while on the road with a band...we were in Panoma Southern California, and there was a karioki/fish taco place (super delicious, btw) next to the venue. I saw a young girl, maybe 8 or 9 years old, do Welcome To The Jungle...by that psychosis of a band...it was the most bizarre and grotesque American cultural event I'd ever witnessed. A highlight of the tour in retrospect.

Slash ain't bad but there are allot of great guitarists. I like Hendrix, Sonnny Sharrock, Frip and Frith and Bill Friezell. One upon a time I loved John McLaughlin (with Miles) but he's just gotten too clinical the last 20 years. Sometimes it's such a relief when the guitar player stops playing.

Oh jeez not this shit again..

Slash opennly admits he isn't technically a great guitar player. And so what? It isn't how many notes you can play in a second or how "skillful" you appear to be. Steve Vai and Satriani can play at lightning speed but they are both soulless little nobodies that can't write good music even if they tried.

It's about soul, not speed or technical ability. Stay in 3rd grade where you belong asswipe!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 499484


Ha, you surely jest. Well Satriani plays out of tune but Vai is the best, maybe in 20 or 30 years time someone will match his amazing skill, dexterity and detail.

Op I doubt seriously you play guitar.I have been playing for over 30 years and know my guitar well.While Slash may not be the best,he is a great player.One of the best leads ever created and played is on sweet child of mine.It is a flawless lead played with great technical skill and emotion.In fact I challenge any guitar player to play it and sound as good.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 57407

Just youtube "cover" versions. There are many much better than that special ed display of guitar skills Slash does. And I do not mean that disrespectful to special ed people. Nuff said.

No the original on that song can't be touched.Not even Uli Jon Roth or Mathias jabs or even Michael Schenker could touch it you fucking Kraut.

I have to agree Steve Vai is truly incredible no one can play as fat as him...he lacks a little soul sometimes but then Jeff Beck takes care of that category..the 2 best out there

Me thinks it's quite opposite.
His singing is artificial as his singing vocal has nothing to do with John Mayer when talking.
His guitar playing is very mature when it comes to blues. Ask Buddy Guy what he thinks...
