Number five

Up to number 5 on my top 25 hard rock/metal guitarist countdown. It is...

Photobucket
Steve Vai

Vai could go crazy on his solo stuff and then fit in well with more mainstream acts like David Lee Roth and Alcatraz. Vai has a very distinct sound. He can also shred with some off the wall riffs and make it looks easy. Yet the key fact is that he is rarely self-dulgent. Every part he plays is for the good of the song.

***Number five will be out soon.
