ritchie blackmore

Blended blues, metal, and classical so well it'd make u cry

Some of the nastiest riffs of his time

Sweet riffs in spite of missing the tops of his fucking fingers

Pete Ham from Badfinger.
Apart from the slightly cringey effects used in the video the live performance is actually better than the original imo.

objectively correct

Rob Chapman/Rebea Massad
Genuinely cool guys with insane talent

Marc Ribot

i know the chapman guy from the youtube, he's pretty good and always BTFO's the other guy in the videos with his guitar skill.

my favorite youtube guitar guy is Phil X, he always plays some expensive shit

it annoys me bc he's really good, a total chad and can sing really well too

What a fucking pleb you are

The other guy in Robs YT videos is Lee Anderton. He owns the guitar store where Rob and co. Do all of their YT videos. He's also the co-owner of Chapman guitars. So he's not really "a super dedicated" guitarist because he is a excellent buisiness man

Dan Ash.

I don't need a reason.

god the other guy's tone is so horrible, why would he do that to himself

Same. I really like playing nirvana songs, mostly of unplugged and in utero

his tone's not horrible, the thick gibson does work better in that video but I thought his strat sounded pretty good fwiw

Jeff mangum i love how simplistic he can be

the strat tone is so bad dude. it's super shrill

Where do you find good tabs for this music. There is no sheet music for the album but I want to learn some of the songs

Plebs

...

> Roy Harper

He is so original. And he didn't teach Jimmy Page to steal music from others. They were very good friends. He Roy weren't there Jimmy wouldn't have existed. He learned a lot from Roy. I like Jimmy's works. But, he stole :(( I still like those tunes.

You know, Jeff is an underrated guitarist. He may play 4 chords, but he plays them well. His sense of rhythm and pocket is really good. When he starts playing, it's like some sort of machine, like a steam engine just chugging along completely independently of his vocals.
