No, it's Michael Schenker - much better than Bumblefuck, Chickenhat or any of the ten other technically able but musically devoid players Axl tried to replace Slash with.

If you actually listened to Bumblefoot, you'd know that while he does have some nutbag weirdo-shredder music, he also has plenty of pretty much straight up great songs that just also happen to have some crazy playing. And some of them don't even have the crazy playing. He can also sing like a motherfucker.

Also, Michael Schenker wasn't even the best guitarist in his own damn band.

Metallica was waaaaay edgier, tighter, and as a lot, far better actual musicians with Mustaine
Nobody denies this.
Anybody who has actually ever listened to Metallica at length only goes back to Kill em All--entirely written by Mustaine

Metallica sold out long ago and is more "pop" music than it is metal. They also haven't written shit themselves in almost 25 years, so you might as well be watching/listening to a contrived boy band.
Megadeth continues to consistently be cutting edge and carry the genre

Ow here we go again, people that say metallica was a lot better with mustaine are the people that say mustangs are allmost allways people that don't have an actual opinion on the matter but read it somewhere on the internet. You know, the tech noob who's only mentionable skill is to print a pdf that starts singing the gnu/song of gnu/praise for gannoo.

If you say that the black album is a bad record, you clearly haven't listened to the black album yet. And ride the lightning.
I don't care about edgyness, I want propper music, and while I enjoy kill em all, it doesn't even come close to licking newer metallicas heels. Go buy the black album on thick vinyl, and tell me you don't like it

pretty sure anon didn't say the black album or ride the lightning was "bad"
not even close to what he said
he's also dead on about kill em all being the only real metallica album that is solid
kill em all is front to back pure rage instrumentalism, raw, and unadulterated exhibition of talent
metallica lost that after they lost mustaine, period

ride the lightning is decent, but just shows how they lost their edge
it's also only got a couple good tunes and that's it, unlike kill em all which was pure mustaine
black album is the beginning of their pop sellout train and was a commercial pop venture, just like everything bob rock does (fucking guy does michael buble and shit, figure it out)

anybody who touts black album as anything but a sellout from where they went drastically downhill and permanently lost themselves and even couldn't even write anymore literally knows nothing about metallica and nothing about music for that matter

i'm not a massive mustaine fan, but i am a guitarists and have session jammed with some household names everyone would recognize and i can tell you that mustaine is widely considered a guitar god amongst guitar gods
he is not well liked by any means, but he is very much respected as one of the best if not maybe thee best when it comes to electric guitar

just try to start a band, last decades, write everything yourself, play anywhere and anytime, then play all the rhythm guitar throughout the song, a chunk of the lead guitar, and all while singing

good luck

he is very fast and very precise, and when you combine the two and add in everything else he does, it is very difficult to put anybody else on his level
have you ever listened to him actually "just" play guitar where he can focus just on the instrument (like everybody else does), instead of basically doing everything?
you might have a revelation if you do about his measure as a pure guitarist

I agree with this.
People don't realize that when you play and sing lead, it takes most of what you can do guitar-wise away from you as you really need to look at your guitar when you are playing fast and jumping frets.
People who don't actually play don't realize how difficult it is to play and sing at the same time. There is no fair comparison with a mere "guitarist" to anybody who is the lead for a band who happens to play guitar. That is precisely why there are so few of them out there, because they tend to be the most musically talented people.
I don't like Dave Mustaine at all, but he is one HELL of a guitarist and wicked talented. I've seen probably over 500 concerts, lost count a long time ago, and am in the biz, and can tell you that when he is sober, the very best musicians will beg, borrow, and steal to get a session with him. He has definitely invented a lot of chords and dramatically changed how a guitar is played.

This is alright.

The question "who is the best guitarist" always turns into a shitshow (whether on an internet forum, in a magazine, or anywhere else) because most people don't know shit about music, and even amongst people who do, most of them probably don't have a broad enough taste in music to know what they're talking about.
The best guitarist is almost undoubtedly either some prog/death metal, classical, jazz fusion, or flamenco guitarist.
Other genres of music are just too simple in comparison. That doesn't mean they're bad - in fact I love hardcore (punk not that fake scene kid shit), which tends to be pretty instrumentally simple, but it sounds good.

E.g. this shit is way more technically proficient than like any classic rock, alternative, or hardcore/punk band (which again isn't saying they're any better or any worse):

Psssst... mentioning malmsteen autofails your opinions among people who actually know what they're talking about...

>>712155473
Fine I'll give you a chance to explain your compete retardation. What is wrong with, second only to Guthrie, the greatest guitar player right now.
>>
>>712155624
>right now
HAHAHAHA! Holy shit, kid. Stop posting. The art of guitar has moved so far beyond Yngwie's gimmick. He might have been a contender 25+years ago, but he's not even on the map in the modern era.
>>
Steve Vai. He's a fucking genius. I'm learning Die to Live right now and his taste in music writing is unmatched in my opinion.
>>
>>712155402
That might be beautiful and all, but guitar-wise it's nothing spectacular at all
>>
>best guitarists
>no Uli Jon Roth
>>
>>712155353
becker was on some next level shit, definitely the better player between him and friedman, which says a lot.

i think guthrie govan might take the cake though, it's hard to say if he's better or not than some of the other guys like yngwie on their home turf but he's got an advantage when it comes to meshing with other styles of music.

Right you're retarded. His what was it gimmick, right, might be old and he might be the biggest ham but still his style requires serious technical ability, which you neither posses nor understand. So who is better the nigger with the 9 string Ibanez? Right.

Jimi Hendrix....anyone else is a distant second.

Dave's solos have the most similar style though. Heaps of trills between two notes.
>>
>>712143824
Steve Vai would destroy them all
>>
>>712155972
Leave him be, he's just a salty elitist. Yngwies work with various symphonic orchestras (even as of late) is stunning!

>i think guthrie govan might take the cake though
Agreed forgot about him initially, but I did mention him when that retarded pretended to know what he's talking about. When you have to pick between Guthrie, Marty, Jason Becker and Yngwei, even Chris Broderick is in that list, in mind mind, their technical proficiency makes it very difficult to determine who is the best.

Fucked that one up didn't I. Well my point still stands you are neither capable of understanding nor replicating the technique that goes into his style.

Nah m8 he just sucks. Being able to wail in minor pentatonic does not a great guitarist make.

John 5. How the fuck hasnt he been mentioned yet?

>>712156843
hahaha I actually love Les but yeah when You listen to classics like Jaco, Larry Graham and Geddy he's alright
>>
>>712146035
Only correct answer
>>
>>712156922
Haha im just trying to get your goat. Les is fucking amazing. Im a pretty damn good bassist (if i say so myself) but he makes me look like a total noobie.
>>
>>712146035
One of the greatest, for sure.
>>
>>712156727
No

>>712157026
Yeah me too (obviously) lol the man actually inspired me at a very young age to play the 4 string furniture. I love his style. What kind of rig you got m8?
>>
>>712156688
I mentioned John 5 earlier. You're late.
>>
>>712149503
Youre a fucking retard and actually listen to some of his albums. He can play ANY style, literally any. Bluegrass, chicken pickin, metal, classic, the man can do it all. You are probably still salty that you couldn't ever beat Jordan on Guitar Hero, right faggot? Kys

Squier 70s jazz bass, mxr compressor. Run through a marshall head as a preamp, ran out to my bands pa system. It sounds great, even though its unconventional. I eventually wanna get a "real" bass amp, but im a poorfag family man, so new gear is a rare acquisition.

Back in my prefamily days, i had a massive peavey head with an 8x10 cab. It was ridiculous overkill, but bad ass as hell. Sold it off in my early 20s :(

What about you?
>>
>>
>>712149503
... you're joking right??? You actually think some one has to have a HIT to be considered a great?? Like popular opinion actually denotes a great guitarist?? Dude, KYS
There are PLENTY of guitarists who didn't have hits and are still great. You're a fucking sheep, branch out more and stop being such a fucking prude.

Ha, of course. Im not that far from you. I live just outside of asheville nc. Awesome music scene up here too. My band has landed a handful of small gigs. We are going into the studio sometime soon to record a "professional demo". Hoping we pop off somewhat this coming summer.

Kudzu Burning. We have no internet presence yet. Not really big enough to justify a website yet, but hoping to have some stuff up on youtube sooner or later.

Our mixer has a built in usb interface, so we record every practice into audacity on a laptop. It's just a stereo out, so we have to get the sound right from the front, rather than being able to tweak it track by track after the fact, but it sounds pretty damn good anyway.
>>
>>712158354
Lol just ignore pricks like that, bro. Not worth the energy.
>>
>>712158641
Holy shit we are literally doing the same thing. Weve got a home set up for now and customed a room with sound proofing and just drag each of us in there to record each part individually. It's all a pain but we just scheduled to have some studio time next month. I wanted to wait to put our stuff out until we worked on our tone and all but our vocalist made the page and put up some songs already lol it's his band though so whatev.

>>712158641

Damn! I wish we did more funk and psychedelia but honestly we're more rock/metal/and all. Our vocalist got this thing together and it's his second attempt at a band me and the drummer was already in with him. He's pretty Manson inspired but the drummer and I are more into Classic rock and funk. here's our reverbnation https://www.reverbnation.com/rci3
All very rough recordings and fucking around. plus I was using my mates old Peavy TNT series amp so it's trash sound lol
