But as far as who IS the fastest?? The only way to tell would be to get all the fastest players around and put them in one room and let them play as fast as tehy can and then slow the audio file way down and see... It gets to a point where the ear can't hear the individual notes... But when I think of the fastest I think of names like Jason Becker, Rusty Cooley, and Paul Gilbert...
