Over rated Guitarists.

Submitted by Gordy Smiff on Wed, 06/28/2006 - 18:02.

We all have our favourite guitar players, and we all like them for different reasons. But, what about the ones, in your own opinion, don't deserve the adulation and hero worship that goes hand in hand with being famous.
I don't want this to turn into a huge "flaming" session, but here's my 2 cents: The Edge. Yes, he does have an instantly recognisable sound, but blimey, you'd think he'd have developed a bit more over the years :roll:

Hey 2 people just agreed with me! Woohoo!

I'm sure Steve Vai is good at what he does but I'm not in the 0.000001% of the population that can tell one Fret-w***er from another so couldn't possibly comment.

This isn't a comment by the way.

Dimebag Darrell. Maybe I'm just disgruntled at Dean's Dimebag product frenzy.

Yes, I've commented on that before. It does seem a bit lacking in taste.

Joe Satriani..........

And of course that wonderful Scrabble score Yngwie Malmsteen.

I remember Vai playing in Zappa's band (his big break) and Frank was looking at him like "nice noodles, but what the hell are you actually trying to do?"
