Michael Angelo Batio

ill give him props for his ambidextrous qualities. but no thanks, I don't need to shred with both my left and right hands, left hand will do just fine



agreed

Have you listened to all his Solo CD's? He is extremely melodic also, perhaps you should go listen to all his solo CD's then come back and say all he does is the same thing.....

From what I've read of your posts, you don't seem to really know what "melodic" really means, so I'm going to retain my current opinion of Batio.

n00b.
 
Batio sucks as a song writer, but his endurance at top speeds is very
admirable. But thats it.

He's not ambidextrous, you too can practise to hammer-on and pull-off
with your none-preferred fretting hand.

He's not sloppy, but his phrasing is the same no matter what he plays,
and that to me equals no feel.

He did'nt invent the over-under thing (sounds SHITE) people have been doing that for decades.

Cooley totally destroys him.
 
:kickass: fuck yes he does although Cooley is a bit too fast, or he is on his solo album, his Outworld work is very nice.
Now on the other hand....you want TOO fast? this below is simply retarded :Puke:...lets put it that way

uurrgggghhhh!!

terrible man....the second comment hit the nail on the head.
He's not picking what he's playing at all. He's sliding a lot and picking
EVERYTHING...which sounds crap imo.
there's no clear precision there. No real control.
Reminds me of Andy Van Hatcher or what-ever he's called.
 
Cythraul who's the girl in the sig?

MAB's a worthless wanker who can't write worth a crap. Anybody can get ridiculously fast at guitar if they put 10-12 hours into it a day.

Songwriting is what should be valued, not technical ability.

this is a thread about technical ability

if that's not what you are into, then get the fuck out
