Thread delivers.

Technically hecould outplay alot of people. Albert King for example.
Does that make Zakk a better guitarist than Albert?
IOW, this argument on both sides is stupid and pointless. Its OK to like what you like, dislike what you dislike, just dont act like a pansyass fanboy when someone else doesnt see thngs the same way...thats the thing that annoys everyone about hero worship.

I see you want to turn the argument around a bit, but "technically", I dont see Albert in here dissing Zakk about his "pinch harmonics" and "biker attire".
"Outplay" means alot of things besides just technical ability.
Thank you for proving my point.
You managed to say Zakk could outplay most of us whom are on the forum...now outplay doesnt mean technical ability when I offer up a legendary example that goes outside of technical ability.
Care to define "outplay" then?And how based on that criteria you know Zakk is much better than a bumch of.people you have never heard play? If its not just technical ability.then what are these other factors?? Maybe some of us are really good at it.
I am in no way shape or form talking about his image...you can bring that up with those who mentioned it.
water is wet, no its not!!!
Zakk Wylde has played more different styles than just about any other famous guitar player out there.zakk wylde is a guy like malmsteen and michael schenker. they play the same **** for at least 20 to 30 years, never bothered in changing styles, really.

Let`s see he`s done the hard rock thing with Ozzy, the southern rock Pride and Glory , a couple acoustic cds , metal with Black Label , am I missing anything? Love em or hate em Zakk is one hell of a guitar player.
I'd rather listen to this guy..

I don't think Zakk Wylde has much (if anything) over him.
You, Sir, are my Hero.
I hate when someone says "yeah well, he caught a break and rode someone else's coattails and he's selling records - what did you do?"
Find me a pair of coattails, or get me a break, and I'll sell millions of records, too.
The simple fact is, I HAVE written better songs than ZW, and better than most of what's out there right now. The big difference is that I have no contacts and no exposure. If they don't hear it, they don't buy it.
Also plays a bit of piano as well. The whole "schtick" or whatever is one thing but, truth is Zakk can flat-out play and I personally love him. Probably my favorite guitarist ever. The solo from "No More Tears" is the whole reason that I even picked up a guitar and listening to it gives me chills to this day. His new book is ****ing hilarious as well.
I thought it was because he shaves his eyebrows.John 5 is a heckuva player.. I think he isnt taken seriously cuz he was in MManson.
