I'm a big fan of old rock music like Hendrix, Clapton, Led Zep etc. Recently however i've discovered Intense. I was wondering who you think is the better guitarist, Dave Peak of Intense or Jimi Hendrix of the Jimi Hendrix Experience. What do you think, its certainly a close one.
Hendrix v. Peak?

Well you could say Dave is technically better which many guitarists are over wor jimi... Hendrix paved the way, many other guitarists perfected the techniques he started... he's the most innovative guitarist ever but probably not the best.
Well, to stir up a hornet's nest of controversy, I actually think guitarist Palmer is the better guitarist. Dave rocks, but his use of Gibson guitars just isn't 'rock' enough. And anyone who needs 25 stomp boxes to sound half decent with their tone obviously can't cut the mustard. Nick can widdle with the best of them. And Hendrix wouldn't have passed the Intense audition. For a start, the whole Fender single coil pickup thing is just not metal.
Oh yes, that last post was also taking the mick! I have a sneaking suspicion that Dave won't agree that he's better than Hendrix, and given that Hendrix was dead at 27, I reckon that he'd have become a total monster a few years down the line. Interesting debate, nonetheless.
I didn't get to hear much of nick due to the sound fuck ups at grimsby hahaha
saw the widdling... heard nothing sadly

Interesting deabate as many of the guys/bands mentioned are Dave's influences or at least among them. This is how i see it, Dave goes for Feel and Nick goes for Technical so it just a matter of taste which you like best. Both Rock imo ..
Nick-Intense
Birth - METAL - Death
Well, *actually* I usually try to look for feel & emotion in a solo over just technical trickery - so what Sean is saying, is that I clearly don't achieve what I set out to do. Oh well, back to the rehearsal shed with me...
(And, whilst I'm at it - I think Dave goes for complete insanity on his solos quite a lot of the time too! But I know where Sean's coming from with his comment!)

I'm afraid Skull of Sidon's guitar solos are all Nicks....as for Hendrix he is definetely one of THE masters -i am nothing in comparison.
