it's abit funny how, often playing fast and with ton's of distortion is considered being skilled, "well sure, it is"

but for me at least, some of the true greats, "and the most dificult thing" is playing a slow song/solo, with a clean/nakid sound, and making it work,
Now thats skill!!!

ps: saw a vid once with an asian chap playing "while my guitar gently weeps" on a Ukulele that was preaty sweet to watch

found it
YouTube - Jake Shimabukuro plays "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

i'd also add that there's absolutly nothing wrong with fast,
and alot of the best songs combine fast and slow passages,

oh and ps, I love distortion, so dont get me wrong on that one either ;)

Hey, music is music - in all its infinite styles, forms, tempos, and instruments.
Its hard to explain how and why music affects us the way it does. Sometimes its easier just to smile, and go right back to listening to what makes us happy.

Oh and by the way, he's Japanese, not Chinese. Shimabukuro is Japanese. Check his tour dates out. 80% all in Japan.

Think that should be Japanese, and yeah the ones who don't have Ibby's have ESP's. Japanese guitars ftw :D
