H. Last month I got pummelled here for downplaying some supposedly hot player Roy Mossobucco, or some such. I just said the track I herd was nothing special, and easy blues lick repeated. Like the Jeff Beck video had nice music, but no spectacular fret work.I have now seen spectacular, unbelievable fret work. The hottest player I have seen in 52 years (yes I saw Jimi in person and was not all that impressed with his fretwork). I seen Jeff Beck in person, Jimmy P, Fripp, Ynmgwae (whose name I had to ask him four times); none of these hold a candle to Buckethead.
