Oooh... Somebody knows what they're talking about...

Dodgy weather ahead with my longwang.

Swing that wang...

To be honest, I couldn't care less. I'm better than someone, someone is better than me, someone is better than them...at the end of the day I play my own style, not a rip-off of Malmwetsfjwk or Gilbert or XYZ person that can play fast. All my favourite guitarists are innovators, not fret-rapists. I've studied classical, rock, glam, jazz, blues, funk. Metal rates pretty low in the interest and difficulty factor.

Are you both going to pull 'em out and see who's bigger now?

Thankyou Mr Robot.

And as for technicality/musicality I think that having an excellent level of technical skill is important, not because it lets you ram through stupid 23978372372 note per second shred solos but because the greater your level of technical ability, the more techniques there are to exploit for different effects. It gives you the option of playing fast if you so desire.

Playing fast for the sake of it is pointless, but there are times when it can be appropriate and useful.
