Jimi Hendrix

I don't think Jimi Hendrix was a very good guitarist. He was just the figure of an era and is remembered for being apart of it.

Here are some better Buckethead videos:

LOL Buckethead makes music fun.

Sure, there are better guitarists out there in one aspect or another...

But do they come out swinging nunchucks, breakdancing and wearing a KFC bucket on their head? I think not.

define good guitarist? To me a good guitarist is someone who finds a unique style or better yet creates a new genre. Its not about how fast or how technical their playing is. So what part of Hendrix's guitar wasn't very good?

Buckethead on the other hand...well I can't stand his shredding. I rank him underneath Malmsteen.

 

[colonelkernel8]

Buckethead does the most original music out of any other guitarist, living or dead. He too, has defined a genre, a genre of robotic wrists and hands. Watch him push the killswitch on Jordan, then try tapping your finger that fast. Exactly.

I mis-spoke too, I meant to say Jimi Hendrix essentially defined an era, but I don't think it was solely because of his guitar playing.

Also his [Buckethead's] wide mastery technique. I don't think any guitarist can match him technique-wise.

As far as buckethead goes... i really don't like his style.

 

[Duggeh]

Duggehs favourite guitarist is Mike Oldfield. But Duggeh likes this buckethead too, although not as much. Duggeh also talks about Duggeh in the third Duggeh.
