I will stop the ''Slash asking thing'' I feel so stupid now..

But thanks

stop that.

if slash is your hero then ask about him. its ok. advice was given above about following the patch that slash took to get where he has.
thats the best advice ive seen on this post.
jeff was right, you will never play like slash because your not slash.
what you can do is use slash as one of your influences, along with several others, and be your own guitarist. listen you the ones that slash says influenced him. take what you can from them and move on.
slash is pretty good i have to say. hes made a good name for himself as well.
take what you can, riffs, licks, and tricks from these players and put bits and pieces of them in your own playing and pretty soon you'll have your own path that you are blazing, and folks will one day ask you who it was that influenced you to play the way you do. then you can tell them SLASH.
dont worry about sounding stupid asking about slash stuff.
its perfectly natural. hell, i bet slash asked tons about who influenced him
when he was trying to create his own style.
again, its all about learning your influences so ask away.
