Rate the Song Above YOU! <Guitar Virtuosos!>

Discussion in 'Music genres, Bands and Artists' started by Mrd00d, Mar 5, 2011.

  1. For those that are looking for technical prowess, this thread is for you! We're looking for tracks where the guitarist is prominent, whether it be a solo release or with a band. As long as the guitarist goes nutso, we should be satisfied. Not looking for rhythm guitarists, not REALLY looking for bassists... (even though I wouldn't mind, lets keep it on topic). Without further ado...

    Let's do it!

    I don't know if I've seen a headless guitar before... he can play very well. And it makes for an excellent tune. Nice one!

    Me too, man. Damn surprised this didn't already exist, but I'm expecting good turnout now that it does.

    Man I love... fuckin love... Guthrie's tones. And what ferocity!
    Weird tone at 3:00 too...
    What an ending; What a track.
