Who has the most impressive strikes-per-second using either fingers or pick? Not just the odd flashy burst of speed, but consistently through a song...
For me it's Ron Royce - Coroner - fingers
Dan Lilker - Nuclear Assault - pick
And at the risk of incurring hordes of "guitard" haters, Malmsteens bass work on parts one and three of his Trilogy suite are just majestic. And that's a fact. |

For me anyway. But ones that can sound like Gary Willis and have the depth of construction while doing it, not so many. |
