Is this a van halen guitar lesson dvd ?

[GuitarInstructor]

@vanhalenreserve This is likely from Greg's Guitar Licks DVD, which features licks in the styles of various guitarists.

Van halen's tapping is minuscule compared to actual 4 finger tapping, put that pick behind your thumb and start practicing there's so much more tonal possibilities.

He should have used the Wolfgang Van Halen Guitar for this lesson guitar instructor

@luvstospooge0 No, it's not an opinion. His abilities as a guitarist ar surpassed by many musicians who weren't half as famous as him. I'm not being an asshole. I have nothing against Jimi Hendrix. Just stupid people who say he was the 'best guitarist ever' because they know nothing about guitar whatsoever.

@saulhudson420 so just because you have an opinion on something you can call it true? dont be an asshole man 

[saulhudson420]

@bracemachine09 You missed my point. My point is, Jimi Hendrix guitar skills were maybe a little above mediocre at best. He was an awesome MUSICIAN. And the only reason I point this out is because, like I said, there's still so many people stuck up his ass, saying he was 'the greatest guitar player ever' (which there never was or will be a 'best'), and even if there was, Jimi wouldn't even be on the top 1,000 list of best guitarists. It's true, whether you agree or not.

@legatotechnique No one plays a solo like anyone. Cause everyone has a unique style. And if you don't, you're not a real musician. Besides, EVH was a kickass guitarist, but he wasn't as great as everyone thinks. I mean, not dissin EVH, but it's the same situation with Jimi Hendrix. Obviously, EVH is a better guitarist than JH was, but everyone who's stuck up JH ass are just people who don't know anything about guitar. He created new music for his time. Guitar skills? Great, but not spectacular.
