I think Yngwie and Angelo are more quality and better players from that standpoint, atleast they played with "controlled" technique and they combine speed with melody. While Ferari's technique is questionable, his alternate picking is sloppy and hides it with lots of distortion so that we wont hear the unnecessary noises. I wonder if he can play on acoustic guitar which Malmsteen does masterfully both on acoustic or electric.

Ahhh before I forgot, lets replace Malmsteen and Angelo with my other favorite speedsters. SHAWN LANE and AL DIMEOLA will do. I hope you agree with me. ;)

Point very well taken. I was referring to that tendency to wank, as you guessed, but now I see your point in comparing them to Fareri. Mainly I was commenting on their existence in a list of people who don't wank for speed's sake, because the two of them (especially Angelo) have been known to do that a lot. Even my favorite comp of Yngwie's (Black Star) quickly becomes a wankfest of epic proportions. That said, he certainly is more interesting to listen to than Fareri.
