However, of a musicial biased...I wouldn't say so...since no two people feel the same thing for a piece of music, how can you say one is better - "One man's gold is anothers quartz" (or however that may go...) The best guitarist is probably someone who can envoke all sorts of feeling and emotions from their playing...For some, it's Eric Clapton, other's it Stevie Ray Vaughn, some people go all mushy over Yngwie!...There's just no way to say (on what really matters) who's best...(IMHO!) Who care's how many notes you can play? "If you can't whistle the tune, it don't mean s**t"....
Just my two pennies worth...
Don't worry too much about me, ignore me long enough and I'll go away.
