That must have been hell of a phone conversation.

@1madaboutguitar Look, Metal is a genre that revolves mostly around speed and most importantly accuracy. Im not hitting on eitiher guitarist for their creative talent. What Im saying is, that Andy is the more accurate player. You can hear it when he covered Avenged Sevenfold's Afterlife. Its a fact. Well, it can change if Syn starts practicing harder. Lol.

@joshua9312 lol when are people gonna grow up and stop compulsively comparing guitar players? Its childish and also demonstrates a poor understanding of what playing music is REALLY all about.

@havelant essentially Andy could eaaasily play anything brian could but I seriously seriously doubt brian could play much of andys's stuff.

@havelant Check out andy james's lick library video on avenged sevenfold..he plays Brians solos cleaner in one run through than Brian did in the studio with all his pro tools and presumably broken down into chunks recordings... Andys's version of afterlife is perfect, the sweeps are SO much cleaner than in the original.

@PatInChainsxx7 Just recently I watched a few tutorials from Andy and the next day when I played my warm up licks I could sware I was playing them better than ever before. You can't learn everything just by seeing it, but sometimes seeing something done right seems to help.

@havelant You're missing the point entirely. There's very few situations where Andy fucks up live, his own songs or not. Syn however does. Technically, Andy his a much cleaner player. It's not an argument of opinion, it's a statement of fact. Andy plays live and rocks out just as much as Syn does with his band SMT, but he doesn't fuck up anything, and their songs are technically more challenging. This coming from a fan of Avenged.

@shreddybits

Seriously.. You are comparing 2 different players in different situations? First of all, that DVD was recorded with Andy sitting comfortably in a chair. Brian plays his stuff live, in front of hundreds or thousands of fans.

"Brian can't play his solos live without fucking up, Andy can. " I don't think, that Andy plays A7X stuff live. He plays his own songs.
