LarryUK Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 What a s**t solo. I've never rated him. Second rate playing. He's just an image. Not a player. I can honestly say I can play better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender 4 Life Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 perhaps he's realizing as so many have that, sometimes less is more ! the origional didn't have a gazillion note solo played at 480 bps, so why should he "over-do" it? sounded quite good except for a touch too much breakup for that particular song (just my opinion, flog if you wish) i'm not a "Slash Fan" by any means, but that was cool.......

LarryUK Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 All that he's got is that hair and hat. With him playing slower he seems lost. Loads of bum notes. I watched an Aerosmith video on You Tube last night. Live in Germany. Full of bum notes. Dreadful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see what people see in him. I agree he's written some good songs. But he's not a great guitar player by a long shot. A marketing dream, yes.

The ticket buying (and guitar buying) public disagrees with your assessment - - they must be seeing something you aren't. I'm not selling greatness.

BigKahune Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Marketing. It's the image not the playing. No one's buying that. BTW - Gibson.com readers ranked The Top 50 Guitar Players of All Time - http://www.fretbase.com/blog/2010/06/gibsoncom-readers-rank-the-top-50-guitar-players-of-all-time/ Here's the Gibson link (spread over a few pages) - http://www.gibson.com/en-us/lifestyle/Features/Top-50-Guitarists-528/ Guess who at #34 Not that I totally agree.

He's not the worst in the world. I'm just saying his legend is bigger then his talent. Gary Richrath played circles around him and yet he won't make anyone list of "top players" cause he didn't think of the hat thing. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tman5293 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I think there's some serious jealousy floating around this thread................... Slash is a great guitarist. Is he as good as some of the guys that are 20 years older than him? Hell no! But he's still a really good guitarist. You guys need to stop hatin' on him cause he's famous and your not.

Shnate McDuanus Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Well, I thought Slash did a pretty good job on that song. Not great, but pretty good. What ruined it for me was the vocalist. Also, yeah, Slash's rhythm tone was a bit too gritty and "scooped" to keep up with the horns.\ His solo was cool. He used up every hard-rock cliche in existence, but it was cool nonetheless. Just what I expected from Slash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG FAN Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I'm not in the either the hate Slash or the love Slash camps. I don't think he is the second coming of Hendrix like some kids today think he is, but I like some of his work and tone with GNR. These days, not so much. Also, how does he keep from hurting his back playing all crouched down like that, he ain't as young as he used to be....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silenced Fred Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Why is Sl00sh getting **** on in this thread? In this song, he sounds exactly like Sl00sh Soooo... if he tried to make it sound like someone else, it wouldn't be his Sl00sh tone and y'all would ***** about that Plus 1 to XDemon, he hit on the head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
