A friend of mine showed me a Zakk Wyld instruction video and could say that it was the most kick-ass I've ever seen!

He didn't played with any disortion, just low gain and everyone knows that it's more difficult played..

1. So I gotta ask you guys, is it more usefull practising without dissortion and without reverb??

2. He picked the strings hard as hell. Is that for any good reason (more than if you play on a acoustic)?

Thanx!!

Oh and Zakk did say he likes picking (didn't mention how hard but) coz it gives definition.
