There is a buzz around this guy at the moment, some are even saying he's the best guitarist in the world.
I'm not sure about that but he's pretty impressive.

Are those who have technical skill and speed, or those who just make something sound good.
For instance, nowadays there there are probably hundreds or thousands of guitarists technically better than Dave Gilmour or Mark Knopfler, but I still rate them at the top cos of the melodies and 'feeling' that their solos etc have.

there are hundreds of guitarists equally as technically gifted as this bloke, but it is dull and soulless showing off. look further down the page here . head and shoulders above this guy, and has a better beard. (imo )

He may be technically gifted so to speak but it's still dull fretboard wankery. Also, he's playing along to BLUES. You can play any old shite over that as long as it's in the right key and it'll still sound LOLSPECTACULAR.
