Best Guitarist in the World

[nuno]

---

"Went to manila.. met nuno.. can't understand the rest.. hehe di na kasabot, bay." Anyway instead of "Guitars That Rule The World" it should be renamed as "The Wandering Album"

kidding aside though.. It is a good guitar album.. It helps me unwind/loosen up. Shakes you up a little bit and before you knew it, you are quite relaxed already. There is also the volume two but I do have that yet.

my best shredder is Michael Angelo Batio ---- no guitarist can match the speed of this neoclassical weirdo. He invented the Double Dean guitar and the only one who can successfully play the guitar (just imagine two hands, ten fingers shredding....huh....weirdo). i like the guy coz he serves the church.( enjoy his China)

Second is Chris Impellitteri ---- Get back Malmsteen....if anyone had invented a shreddometer or a sweepometer this maniac might destroy its gage. (listen to his Sreaming Symphony...it ROCKS!!!yeah)

Third is Yngwie - kapangalan ng anak ni Ecleo ( did you know that Ruben Ecleo Jr. is a guitar virtouso....i heard he was a student of Satriani. well in his financial capability...well, it's possible). This guy led my ears and hands in playing Neoclassical Rock...Cool Yngwieeeeeee! Rising Force

Fourth is Paul Gilbert - so humble but so fast, so damn fast and very creative. listen to the JIG...it's a masterpiece.

Fifth is JOE SATRIANI - idol, not so fast but so fine, so good i mean very good...no exellent. i like the way he makes his music...so ear friendly. and when i die...i would prefer Always with me, Always with you to be the music while people march me to my grave. yeah!!!!

sixth is Steve Vai - A perfect master of the Stage. Master of guitar effects...and good student of Satriani's. Anwers...Answers...Answers.

seventh - John Petrucci - just try to listen t the war between Rudess and this guy, Currently the ninth shredder. But Damn, he kicks ass...although sometimes he gets so over progressive sometimes people get bored during a concert...coz they can't catch a bit of petrucci's licks hehehe...go johnny go....I like the way this guy played the Dance of Eternity.

to be continued.......

continuation....

Eight is Eric Johnson - So Cool...so friendly music but somtimes boring, notwithstanding his skills are incomparable. His fingers seems like jumping from the first fret of the 6th string to the 12th string of the 1st string with tremendous acceleration of his Stevie Ray Vaughan influenced fingers. SRV

Ninth is Eric Clapton - The Cream of the crop. David Aguirre of Razorback followed this mans footsteps. The licks and the lax mood behind clapton's spirit makes the blues genre universal.

tenth is Eddie Van Halen - I've seen a Van Halen concert and it seems like a show for eddie. That's the moment i realized the origins of Vai and Satriani's Techniques.

last but not the least ---- JIMI HENDRIX - with no formal study of the guitar.
the guy can play awesome tunes even if the guitar is out of tune...unique
a master....a virtouso
