The end times are here. Blah blah blah. Get stressed and shit. Oh sooooo scary! Deal with it anyways, til they put a chip in you yer fine.

Anyways... Uli john roth is really fucking good! He is one of the best guitarists ever. I want a sky guitar, they are like 20 thousand dollars tho... Out of my reach for now. I am just playing my acoustic for now anyways, but homestly ive been pissed lately and havent played in a week so i gotta wait for another spike in the mind to harness. I suppose rest is good. Either way uli john roth is one of the best. Him and doc watson. I suppose i should post a proof video. Vidsdidnthappen!!

This ones a people pleaser!!

Uli is a master. Interestingly enough he also dated the women who was dating Hendrix when he died, and did a few Hendrix tributes.

The Sky Guitars are crazy as well, for those who haven't seen them:





Aside from looking crazy they have a lot of unique features, namely a much longer scale with 30~ frets that go into violin like high note territory for classical styles.

Then it has a pickup built into the neck, under the fretboard. So the extended scale just goes right over the neck pickup. On top of that it has some sort of active wiring with 3 band EQ styled after british amps.

Really amazing sounding guitars:


Uli Jon Roth All Along The Watchtower

I wonder how hard it would be to build a sky guitar :strokebeard: If you can find the specs it might not be a ton harder then a normal guitar, and the luthier tools would be a fraction of 20k and you get endless use with them.

I'd totally buy a sky guitar if I had the money, but custom instruments are also really cool and personal since you get to try and set them up to be perfect for your uses. Does take a lot of work though.

Seems like a hell of a lot of work. I think i want to master my regular guitar before i go into that territory.

Jerry Garcia is the best by far. Maybe not on a technical level, but definitely on an emotional level. For a more technical guitarist I would have to say Buckethead is number one on my radar.

Id give it to Vai over Buckethead.... dude had it all.



Also shout out to Jason Becker who in my opinion would have emerged as the best shredder the world had ever seen by a mile, if not for an illness that took his otherworldly physical talent from him. Becker did things ive never seen before and dont think many experts (outside of maybe Vai) could ever replicate.

Everyone mentioned is an amazing guitar player...

...But I personally think Guthrie Govan is currently the best living guitar player all around.

Eh, Vai was the "Stunt Guitarist" for Zappa, so he was playing crazy stuff from a young age. But most of it doesn't do it for me the same as players like Buckethead who is a master of emotion.

Buckethead also literally has 300+ albums if you count all the Pikes, which cover a nearly impossible range of styles. From the heaviest most over the top shredding to beautifully relaxing songs that can put you into a very peaceful sleep.

So he's hard to beat from a musical standpoint.

Guthrie is definitely up there too. Love his parts on this Nick Johnston song:

I like Joe Satriani over Steve Vai on almost any occasion.  Tosin Abasi and John Petrucci are beastly as well.  Uli is awesome.

Just got my amp fixed up which is a clone of the Peavey Satriani amp. Here is the original:



And here is the one I have:



It's a bit high gain/modern for my tastes, but still a pretty nice amp for a chinese clone.

I used to be a Vai guy but Satriani makes more sense as a player as I get older.

Tender Surrender is still my fave Vai track. That and Building The Church.

You guys have good taste. Buckethead and satriani are my favorites. Vai is cool too but he doesn't have as many great songs as satriani. Of course no one can touch the pure volume of quality music buckethead puts out.

I've never gotten into uli. Every time I tried I couldn't get into it but I'll check out the song you posted. I always saw him as one that inspired the guitarists that I'm into but can't get into it myself. That guitar is cool but I think it'd be extremely difficult to build due to the pickup under the fretboard.

I used to own that jsx head. It was awesome but I'm always trading for something else. From what I remember it was extremely crunchy. The funny thing is if you ever saw satriani playing the jsx he was always just using the clean channel with a ds1 distortion pedal. He never actually used the distortion channels on that amp which was weird. My main amp now is a Mesa Triaxis preamp into a Mesa fifty/fifty power amp with axe fx 2 for effects. I like to record with just the axe fx 2 though for convenience and it sounds great.

I feel like the extended range and pickup would be the only especially hard parts vs a normal guitar. And there are probably some ways to simplify those aspects, still a challenge for sure but it would be so rewarding and would save 20k :lol:

Hell if you ask around you might be able to find a luthier who would build one for a fraction of the price. Who knows how it would compare to the originals though.

Yeah was reading that he'd run multiple of them as well, maybe even different models since peavey made a few JSX amps.

It is an overly crunchy amp, I dig the crunch/lead channels for some stuff but they are pretty overkill gain wise at least personally.

Mesa makes some sweet stuff, was considering selling my amp to buy the Trirec clone for awhile.

I've been playing/recording mostly DI for awhile now and have been quite happy, but figured it was time to get my guitar amp fixed. Have been using my bass amp for guitar a lot, which works great but it will be nice having a dedicated bass amp again :grin:

Can't believe I forgot all the amazing Japanese guitarists:


Isamu Ohashi ‎– No Edit (1998)

There is a live album with 3 of the greatest Japanese guitarists. And here is a live video of 2 full bands playing together:


T-Square & Dimension - Live Concert In Korea [Full Live]

The Guitarists from T Square and Dimension are definitely up there for 2 of the most talented.

There are dozens of others worth mentioning but it's hard to even keep track of them all.
