Buckethead: Greatest Guitarist Of Our/All Time?

**Frownland** · 02-10-2012, 08:03 PM

I thought that you didn't like his hectic and agitated shred bits, vegangelica. Too bad you don't like electric tears, but to each his/her own.

I wonder if he'll ever master flamenco or gypsy guitar .. Or maybe he already has

Virtuosos from those styles are the guitarists that impress me most.

Mrd00d, did you ever read the interview with the man behind the mask? I posted it on the site some time ago and figure you'd like it if you haven't seen it yet.

He does play some Spanish style stuff. I doubt he's mastered them but I'm sure he can play just about anything fairly well.

Nice link, by the way.

Thank you both, for the interview and the Lawson Rollins.

Tore, if you're looking for some Spanish guitar, check the link Blastingas posted there. Although it could be Lawson who is doing the Spanish sounding bits, actually.

I have to think on whether BH has done any flamenco work, but for now, check out some of his banjo work:

Don't see how you can hate jazz. Jazz guitar is amazing.

blastingas10 · 02-12-2012, 12:54 AM

That's Lawson on acoustic, but Buckethead is playing some Spanish-esque style on the electric.

blastingas10 · 02-25-2012, 11:46 AM

No way. Buckethead is much more versatile, he has more style, he's more creative and unique, and I think he is every bit as technical.
