Members Darkstorm Posted June 21, 2011 Members Share Posted June 21, 2011 Nothing wrong with shred guitar stuff. It like black and death metal and even electronica dance music isnt as popular as more conservative music simply cause more people are into conservative. Me I'm not. I prefer more out there music.

Members IbanezJon Posted June 21, 2011 Members Share Posted June 21, 2011 Not bad. Music is about songs and vocals most of the time.. the rest is pretty irrelevant. Unless your trying to impress others on a guitar forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoneNut Posted June 21, 2011 Members Share Posted June 21, 2011 OK - here's my take on it. It's pretty easy to make excuses for a lack of drive and determination to be the best you can possibily be on your instrument and just claim you play with "feeling". Unless you're writing brilliant songs you just play badly, if you're writing brilliant songs, then f*9k off to the song writing forum and stop pretending to know anything about playing guitar I've heard plenty of souless blues players and plenty of souless rock/indy/grunge players. At least a souless shred player can impress people with his guitar ability. What the hell is wrong with wanting to attain a virtuoso level of skill on the guitar? Shred "to be the best you can possibly be on your instrument" Just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DavidMgT Posted June 21, 2011 Members Share Posted June 21, 2011 I really do not see the point in shred bashing, blues bashing, Gibson bashing etc.. Guitar would be extremely boring if we all played the same thing in the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SnowViking Posted June 21, 2011 Members Share Posted June 21, 2011 Here's a thought: Can shred be properly played without any effects? I mean, you can play an old stones song or a bob dylan song on an acoustic guitar or a clean electric. But what would shred sound like on either of those? If it wouldn't sound good, the comparisons to virtuoso violinists are moot. Django Reinhardt was shredding (with 2 fingers) on an acoustic long before our current Paganini's of the fretboard. /shred/shred/shred/ [video=youtube;LoIJ4W7kXiQ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
