Dude, I was listening to Django, Pass, Charlie Christian (you know him?), and had private lessons with Lenny Breau before you were born . I started playing guitar about 35 yrs. ago. I started classical music lessons over *40* yrs. ago. If you remember, I responded to your post about music schools, and told you about my experiences at Berklee. I've run the gamut of all styles- excepting maybe hardcore metal/shredding. You made a statement, and I asked a valid question. Your response suggests there's some kind of objective measuring stick to "good technique". All I asked was YOUR interpretation of "bad" technique, more specifically as to how it applies to Hendrix and Clapton. It's become apparent you can't back up your statement with some type of explanation. :confused:
