Favorite Songwriting Guitarist
Now we all know that there is more to playing guitar than just playing. There is also songwriting which is an important quality of a good guitarist. There were many great songwriters, just to name a few-Jimi Hendrix-who wrote amazing music in only 4 short years, Iommi-amazing riff writer, Hetfield & Hammet-amazing duet, what more can I say, Slash-who continued to write rock 'n' roll tunes that remined us that Page and Beck formed rock 'n' roll, not Bach and Paghoni (or however you spell his name), Jimmy Page-leader of Zeppelin who continued to write amazing pieces of music, Stevie Ray Vaughan-who re-defined the blues. That is just a few. Just wanted to hear from you guys, who your favorite is?

there is hendrix, page, and clapton, there's also brian may, izzy stradlin (wrote most of guns n roses songs), neal peart (ok he's not a guitarist but his songs are amazing), there's many others as well
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.
