He can play forever and never play the same thing twice and it is like his technique takes a back seat to his musical intellect and creativity.

    It’s hard to be super prescriptive regard the best of anything, but if someone could point me in the direction of any guitarist anywhere, alive or dead, who can transpose himself in to any song, in any genre, in any style and seamlessly integrate himself with such a range of skill, feel, and precision then I really really want hear that person play. GG is like a memory bank, a human Chat GPT of guitar players. If there’s something he can’t do I’m not sure anyone’s born witness to it, and we probably only see 5% of what he can do anyway. Absolute genuine one off total genius.

    And then GG comes along and outdoes both Prince and everyone else without even trying. Hell, I was surprised at how restrained his "Purple Rain" solo
    was here......and yet, it's light-years above what Prince was capable of. GG just shits out music like the overlord of the universe.

    Technically he is a monster, but what makes him the highest level master, wizard level if you will, Lies not in his physical ability on the instrument. There is a quality that the highest level guys have that transcends guitar, Shaun lane was another example. Those qualities are having great humbleness as well as having very high IQ and emotional awareness. Also very very little EGO, the recipe for a wizard
