he's not a bad guitar player, he's awesome, it's just different people have different opinions, yh sure he's not amazing at solo's but guitar not all about shredding and sweeping and stuff, he's style is uniqe unlike all these shredders that you hear about, i like shredding on guitar but i also like this stuff it's all about opinion.
All you need to do know is a couple scales, and shred the fuck out of them to make a stereotypical solo. That gets boring as hell, so instead of doing that, do a solo with great melody and atmosphere that is alot more musically interesting than having fast picking speed.
he went to school and studtied jazz he knows what he's doing and could be a jazz guitarist if he wanted to,,he could play with anyone,,,the people that are talking shit don't play guitar or don't know anything about it,,,just shows you how dumb people are
u guys r funny... given the fact that u ppl r talkin shit... wes borland is unique... enjoy his music or jus shut the fuck up! and if u ppl shud know he never uses a pick.... and also he did a cover for master of puppets ... oh and wait.. ya durst wasnt the vocals for it... it was wes....
@romospider no... hes deffinatly good... besides, what sounds nice sounds nice... you dont have to wank off a guitar neck non stop to get a good sound.
very true, playing fast is all about practise, making good music is not. everybody can pick fast, but not everybody can play well. that's what you have then, players like michelangelo batio, he plays faster than light but his songs are empty of feeling, and players like wes, with only 2 notes per hour can make you feel in heaven.
@Shyuum everybody can play fast with practise; not everyone can play WELL with excersises. nobody can teach you how to be a great musician, but anybody can make you be faster.
@Shyuum any motherfucker who can do fast, with a couple of excercises you can rise your speed in a couple of years. but if you are a looser then you'll never get to play fast, nor playing well. that's your problem, being gay
@FraileTuck0 Yup all takes practice, like in my old band that broke up, I sucked at guitar and I had to be rythymn guitarist, as time went, in a few months I got better than the lead guitarist.
@Guerillaradio13 Right! And everyone has different taste in art/music.
Don't like how something sounds? Do what most of us did - buy your own guitar, and play it different, or how you'd want it to sound. Instead of just complaining about it... lol
I like Brad Delson as a person, but he's not very talented! Linkin Park is a good band, but they will never be legends like for example Metallica, Guns'n Roses or ACDC! Brad is cool, but not talented!
Didn't know wes could play guitar like this haha.. i liked him because of his style..
but dude, good solo.. and by the way he ain't no good.. he's far far from been a a god guitar.. say that to hendrix, or bo diddley, or chuck berry, or maybe! slash.. not even buckethead.. paul gilbert, satriani, jimmy page..
Fuck i dont understand, Wes is a part of limp bizkit and he know it! Without limp he was nothing, now he is great, and limp bizkit with wes has to be a fucking family! Come on wes, the hole limp bizkit world is missing you!
I have no idea how people can be such die-hard Limp Bizkit fans. For instance, BLB has the advantage of not having Fred Durst as well as making some pretty meaningful music. And they covered Duran Duran.
rofl...you copied and pasted this stupid comment from another post you made.....still the same terrible English.....you should touch up the grammar a bit before posting this everywhere......just a suggestion......bitch
cnnre U agree with you that Wes Borland is good, and Durst was holding back his talent. However Fred Durst has much more of a nu metal style, Borland is obviously into industrial rock or just simply metal.
Your good thoughts were ruined by the fact that you act like a clown and are obviously insane.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hes technically good, but i fuckin hate his music choices, he could have been a great guitarplayer if he went rocknroll or blues, but he chose limpbizkit and now industrial shit!!!
I´m feeling you Wes. The major problem of great technical guitar players is that we don´t feel anything...is all about technique and nothing about the music.
Compare Wes playing guitar to Fred playing guitar. You'll laugh your fucking ass off.
