I like Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, Jason Becker and Marty Friedman a lot. And Eddie Van Halen kicks much ass too.
I voted Jason Becker. Just listen to the old Cacophony stuff and his first solo album. He was something like 17-18 years old when he recorded that stuff...

Morse for me, since lots of those other players can certainly shred, but in only 1 style. Morse can do it in rock, classical, and country. Plus his tone is great.
I had all the Tony albums too, but his tone is so bathed in delay and reverb, on those fast runs it is hard to tell what is real and what isn't.

Re: the REAL best shredders...
yeah, there's no Paul Gilbert, Chris Impelleteri, Marty Friedman, John Norum, Steve Stevens, George Lynch,etc, etc =) I was happy to see Tony McAlpine up there though..he doesn't get his due enough...
anywho, I went with steve morse...cause I think he's probably the most well rounded, out of all of them...acoustic, country, blues, rippin stuff, his instrumentals are great AND listenable (as much as I like Steve Vai, he's in outer space too much for me)...
in the end it was still a tough call...

Re: the REAL best shredders...
I voted for Yngwie , I think he´s the best from the list
I also like Petrucci a lot ...
I miss
Al Di Meola
And also the biggest guitar players of the world
(the godfather of Petrucci) "Steve Howe" of Yes in the list
If I had to chose between those 3 I wouldn´t know ..... :smack:

Re: the REAL best shredders...
Michael Angelo... next question.
This isn't about how melodic or creative they are, it's about speed and well, Michael Angelo is IT as far as I'm concerned. Check out his Speed Kills video and you'll never look at the guitar the same way ever again, that guy really is a freak of nature.
