Slash or Nuno Bettencourt?
Slash is the best guitarist, but Nuno is far better at speedplaying.
And he's trained in classical guitar his whole life.
So Slash has my vote, but Nuno is so close a 2nd it hurts.
What's your opinion?

Speed is in the end meaningless the ability to throw all the notes at someone is cool but I think its more musically relevant to pick some and play them well.
I was thinking more of the solo in "Play with Me" by Extreme. Nuno went nuts mixing speed with classical guitar, and he did very well.Quote:

But as far as performance goes and doing it as well as slash, I agree.
"Play With Me" is neoclassical music, Slash doesn't play neoclassical. I don't know that they can be compared. Malmsteen is by far the best neoclassical player next to Rhandy Rhoads in my book.Quote:
