I plan on it as I listen to the guitar solo in Whitney Houston's version of "I Will Always Love You." Oh wait. THERE ISN'T ONE! a tragic oversight, some sweep arpeggios would've taken that one over the top............

And a reading comprehension problem, apparently. we all can't be perfect, rock on bro..............

"Someone mentioned the Candy-O solo in the "Iconic Guitar Solos" thread, and it got me thinking down this road"...............and i have a 10 inch penis..................

GEEZ!! Doesn't anybody read a fucking thing anymore? My head's hurting here!!! Guys-this isn't a post about wankers or solos over two bars or so! Between that and this ... ... my head's about to cave in. There's a lot wrong with it when it has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PREMISE OF THIS THREAD! dude mentioned "iconic guitar solo's" and besides as guitar players who wants a little short solo????????????

nothing wrong with speed dude and yngwie has great vibrato and is just a great player....................

Some very good examples of trademark guitar work for the players you mentioned, but they're all pretty long solos. Indeed the Beck and the Vaughan solos are the entire song. We're looking for quickies here. oh sorry, i'm diametrically opposed to any song that doesn't have at least a 32 measure solo....................

#1- beck-she's a woman- best phrasing i've ever heard in my life, #2-stevie ray- texas flood-gives me goosebumps, #3- eddie van-meanstreets, not the intro but the middle solo,so angry and visceral, #4 - beck -come dancing, the man is a god, #5-george lynch-night by night, incredible tone and killer phrasing on this one.......................................

great songwriter, i grew up with my mom playing his greatest hits, thought it was corny then but appreciate the man greatly now, and anyone who tells tipper gore to stick it is o.k with me..........................

if thats the case it's the biggest pile of shit i've ever heard of, i'd raise holy hell, might not do any good but i'd sure make sure evryone knew what dicks they are......................................

vhII kills, production wasn't as great but songs and playing is off the charts, light up the skies still sends me into uncontrollable air guitar silliness ....................

i always thought the best description i ever heard of the first album is "beach boys on 11".............

excellent point, give that man a tuna casserole............................

why not, very very hard choice for me between the first album or fair warning, the first album.......well what can you say, it's why i'm on this site right now, totally changed my life, bought it at caldors after school in the 7th grade, like i said it changed my life forever as i'm sure it did for quite a few, that being said fair warning is so angry,visceral and just plain mean, in the end i gotta give slight edge to vh1 as it just flat out rips from beginning to end........................

dude, i got some great hamer content pics i'd love to share from our gig at the fed ex orange bowl last month but can't seem to post, always comes back as error, can you advise, thanks

don't know about albums but aside from the song south of heaven i love the song reign in blood(sickest gallop of alltime), angel of death of course is a metal classic..........................

i've seen them in concert three times and they will blow you away, they are the ultimate combination of technique, fire , passion and taste, they really started the whole nouveau flamenco thing except they're a little more adventuorus and not so homogenized as some of the guys i hear doing it now(estaban, sorry dude but he's corny).............

i play this kind of stuff and am currently recording a cd of some similar stuff, if you wanna hear imo the best at this stuff and the originators check out "strunz and farah" , they've been doing and recording this stuff for almost 30 years, jorge strunz is a player on the level of dimeola and mclaughlin, absolutely incredible, they have over a dozen albums out, there early stuff is my fave, particularly "guittaras", "frontera" , "america's" is also great.............................

hey fellow hamerheads, god bless you and yours this holiday season, be cool, harry

trying to sell my boogie rig, have a guy comin over this weekend, if he takes it and you still have it i'll be all over the engle, be cool

yeah the only tone i could find that i dug on the nomad had absolutely no headroom rendering it useless, i haven't heard a dc series but they have a broken one they're fixing that i was gonna try when fixed, heard nice stuff about the dc series, lots o peeps saying the marks are the holy grail of tone, i just want to know if i can get that smooth , creamy super hi gain thing out of it. i had an older studio calibre 22 that i would run my sans amp into and it was the closest i've ever come to what i'm looking for, tons of creamy midrange with bite, i'm really gonna lose it, my wife is ready to commit me, PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME FIND AN AMP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

interested, i,ve been looking at a nomad at my local guitar center and a dc-5, tone wise how does this compare, i'm primarily looking for high gain tones, aka,eric johnson,santana, i've heard great things about the mark series but have never played through one,i'm an old marshall guy and for the last 5 years been running my sans amp classic(only piece of gear i can't live without) into a crate tube amp i know it's hard to put tone into words but any help would be appreciated.

no offense, but you can't lump beck in with those guys,especially clapton, he belongs at the top of the mountain by himself
