Obviously inspired by the thread concerning our favorite drummers. My favorites are Fabrizio Leo, Shawn Lane, Vivien Lalu, John McLaughlin, and Ron Jarzombek. EDIT: Good lord, I almost forgot about Frank Zappa! Although I think of him as a composer first and a guitarist second.

At 4:00 in this vid, a song kicks in with a really cool bass line for the guitar solo. Does anyone at least know wether or not that's Yngwie Malmsteem's band playing that song? I ask because the video poster calls that song Arpeggios from Hell, when it's obviously not.

I've heard that John Myung was an underrated fretless player! Is this true? And if so, can someone post a recording of his fretless playing?

I've seen this technique used to great advantage in many situations, and I've gone as far as learning the technique myself. What bassists use three fingers? I know there's John Myung, Alex Webster, and Steve DiGiorgio.

First of all, it should be painfully obvious that I am not going to be able to get one any time soon, if at all. I know damn well how rare they are, and I know they cost a lot, but is there a general range of prices for them, or is it broad (like $4000-$8000?) Lately I've been GAS'ing for...

Mine are Steve Vai, Eddie Van Halen, Larry LaLonde, this guy: , Tom Morello, Alex Lifeson, Jimi Hendrix, and Dimebag Darrel.

I've never really found a good reason for it; and my main warwick doesn't even have one anyway, so I never really think about it much.

What do you guys think? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=IIrpxO6975c&feature=related And no, this isn't me.

on his fretless? Roundwounds or Flatwounds? The brand would also be nice to know, but that's not what I'm wondering.

This guy is simply amazing... Anyone else heard of him?
