I think covering up mistakes should be done in the playing, not under the guise of effects.

I think what Jolly is saying isnt that the overuse is bad... but is covering his mistakes.. sort of like when i use my distortion to cover my mistakes when im doing some tapping. It sounds way better but its still a habit that isnt good. I personally like alot of Kirks stuff and i dont see any overuse of Wah but pah, if he overuses it he makes overuse sound rele badass. Every guitarist has an effect they pound on so i dont think that should play any part in determining Kirk as a guitarist. There are other arguments more worth the time than this one.

Yeah Jolly, I see your point, but I still appreciate that an effort was made to cover up the mistake...If you can do it in the playing thats great, but as a last resort...better effects than nothing.

I am what oone may call an overuser of effects...I use alot of pixelators and weird synth type effects for single string licks...and they sound amazing, without the effect they sound pants...so am I using effects to cover up a mistake? no, i use them to make things sound better and more interresting.

Ooh, looking over that it may seem as tho I am attempting to be cocky and aggressive, I am not...I actually agree with you Jolly

That's a pretty interesting proposition...there I'd have to go with Slash because Zakk's pentatonic style gets a LITTLE old after a few hours. Both great players though.
