hmm.. Zakk Wylde may be overrated in some peoples book and I can agree to an extent... But I still love watching and listening to him play... And him and Dimebag aren't THAT much alike in the way that they play... and if he did come out with a McZakk burger... I would eat one... It would probably be a beer flavored burger. He embodies every stereotype of what a rock star should be... and for that he's one of my favorites... SDMF...

Zakk Wylde is actually a very nice guy in his personal life, though his stage persona be another.
No one disrespects Yngwie's speed, and if someone did, he would be wont to retool his ears. However, many people seem to think that simply because of his speed, Yngwie is the greatest guitarist to ever have lived. This isn't true, it's ridiculous.

I disagree - I think he's overrated as a player! I just don't understand why he ranks so high in so many "Top 100 Guitarists" lists. I mean, if you're looking for somebody who can shred the pentatonic blues scale at breakneck speed, he's your man; but if you're looking for someone who can play engaging, intelligent music and write and sing songs to boot... well, in my opinion, there are AT LEAST 100 gentlemen who would do a better job.

Check out anything off of Zakk Wyldes Book of Shadows CD... and also check out his side project Pride and Glory... niether are metal projects... Book of Shadows is an acoustic project and Pride and Glory blends southern rock with a blue grass twist... Also... Zakk probably ranks so high up on everyones top 100 lists because of what he did in the 80's as an 18/19 year old kid... It helps that you step in as a kid for one of metals greatest guitarists (Randy Rhodes) and go on world tours and write songs with metals most iconic lead man (Ozzy Osbourne).....so shall we not forget the Ozzy days.... and his songwriting with Ozzy... Sure, his stuff with Black Label may not be as intriquit as his stuff was with Ozzy... but I still like it for what it is... No nonsense, break stuff, drink beer, metal...

A lot of people love that kind of stuff, but I can't stand it. I think it's because I'm still suffering from the trauma of being exposed to Motorhead at age five... *shudder* give me a softer band like Iron Maiden or Queensryche any day LOL

Those signature items get on my nerves! "Wylde Wah"? Pfft, Kirk Hammett could teach Zakk Wylde a thing or two about using a wah pedal.

Frank Marino, Gary Moore, Robin Trower,
Can we have everything louder than everything else???

I definitely agree with you on Gary Moore and Robin Trower. And Frank Marino... I've never even heard of him :o, so he must be pretty damn underrated!

He's been around unfortuantly he doesn't get the props others get but he's good, very hendrix like but also very orginal too.Zakk Wylde always talks about him.If you can go find it check out Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush Live.Also he has a web site with a lot of stuff there including a story about how Frank beat Ted Nugent in a headcutting contest onstage.

Also, to correct some Math here. 15 years ago was 1991. Zakk Wylde's first studio appearance with Ozzy's band was the album "No Rest For the Wicked." Not only was that more than 15 years ago, Zakk Wylde was born in January of 1967. He's now 39 years old. So he has actually been playing guitar for 24 years.

And Zakk Wylde could teach Kirk Hammett a thing or two about playing WITHOUT a wah............... I love Kirk Hammett... but talk about Effect abuse...
Another great great great guitarist is Joe Bonamassa... if you don't know who he is definitely check him out. He's Stevie Ray Vaugan with a twist. Hes a younger guy but he still gets no credit...

over: Tom Morello from Rage, nice use of an effects board, that is it
under: Dean Ween from Ween, brilliant but everyone thinks they are a joke band

Have a listen to "Born of a Broken Man", "Settle for Nothing", "Fistful of Steel", "The Bombtrack" and "Sleep Now in the Fire". He plays quite effectively using relatively simple effects (emphasis: relatively!).
