    check it out!

    Everything he played I can play.

    Search John Petrucci, Paul Gilbert, Yngwie Malmsteen, Marty Friedman, Rusty Cooley, Allan Holdsworth, and like was stated, Jason Becker.

    Paul Gilbert is a good one, petrucci is phenomenal but he doesn't get down inside me and make me feel the fire if you know what I'm saying.

    I don't think he classifies as guitar god heh. Petrucci is my favorite guitarist...alive that is.

    Yngwie is overrated. "Look at how fast I can play a scale, ma!"

    One of the most underrated of all time is Larry LaLonde of Primus.

    Stevie Ray Vaughn was and is still one of my favorite guitarists.

    Yeah, but he's got a killer ear, and he knows what he's doing when he's playing; i.e. not just playing scales as fast as he can without any sense of melody or order.

    I guess there's a blurry line between melodic and technical skills at some point..or something.

    Yea. Another irritating fact about Yngwie is his scalloped fretboard which in essence allows him to be lazy. Instead of bending the strings up or down, he can be lazy and just press toward the fretboard. He claims because of the speed at which he plays. I say laziness.

    Yngwie was special for a while, but he's been eclipsed by other players. Personally Dream Theater bores the shit out of me in general. I'll listen to their albums maybe twice a month, it's all I can stand. His awesomeness is undeniable, but in a way DT is in much the same category as Yngwie (ie: Would you shut the fuck up with the 6 minute guitar/keyboard solo and just play a god damn riff already?). I have yet to pick up the newest DT, the most recent release I have by them is train of thought.
