Question

Answer 1

buy his instructional DVD and learn,practice hard...the rest is your natural talent to be able to play like him....not all has the talent in speed even if you practise or learn exactly like him.But i prefer Paul Gilbert..

Answer 2

this question is kinda ridiculous you can practice for the rest of your life and still never be as good as he is.. he is fast as h**l and wastes absolutely no energy..

Answer 3

It's not the destination, it's the journey babe. To become a guitarist, save a couple hundred bucks, go to the local music shop, and pick up a guitar and a few picks. Make friends with the guys who are working there, assuming it's a good shop they should help you out to start. I know some great people where I go, they're just genuine and all around good people. Practice. Practice. Practice. Play guitar only if you want to. Inspiration is one thing, but trying to be someone else won't get you anywhere. Good luck and have fun hun (:

Answer 4

One thing you obviously need to practice on is Speed and hand coordination

Answer 5
