    Ever since 1966 I’ve been the Biggest Frank Zappa Fan !!!! I own every official release and saw him play at Every Halloween Show and then some !!!! Was at the filming of Baby Snakes and have a bunch of photos I took (before he let his hair down) !!
    In 1966 I’d already had been playing guitar for six years, although you wouldn’t know it !!
    When I saw my first ZPZ Show, I Cried !!!! Dweezil is such a Gifted Guitarist !!!
    His Dad would be very proud !!

But my Mount Rushmore is Robert Fripp John mcglaughlin Allan holdsworth a m d the king zappa . Now my runner up or Alex lifeson & Steve Howe an a. Belew . That have to say as in terms of shredders dweezil Zappa and Steve vai are just as good as Eddy.
    Now the most soulful guitar have ever heard is Jimi Hendrix And Stevie Ray Vaughan.
