Electric guitar...

Playing bass and driving 4 speed is similar. Need to feel it, be in sync with it, and stay under the radar.

Agree, and I believe the most problematic problem with some bass players is the think they are supposed to be loud, dim him or her down to a low luster volume, watch him grow with fill ins and smooth repetition, a loud bass play can ruin the sound of a band fast.

Nice work. Love the split screen duet at the end.

Here is a real oldie From Waldo. Mark Goff (bass and vocals) was a music teacher. He did a stint teaching the "Backstreet boys" how to sing and some work with Creed. Ginger Reynolds (the voice of Anne Wilson) had something to do with the Ilinois school districts...and then there is Waldo on the home made Stratocaster. Barracuda

This sounds like those who-is-the-best-guitarist debates we’d have in middle school.

It never matters to me if someone has x-amount of musical talent. If I like what they do that’s enough. Passion is what grabs me, not say how many notes you can fit in a phrase or how complex a melody or rhythm can be.

Maybe in other genres it matters more but when it comes to rock’n’roll, high-level musicianship does not necessarily translate into good music.

2 of my favorite guitars come to mind here when you speak of passion. Gary Moore is second to none when playing with passion and soul, and he’s not a bad singer.

My favorite is of course Steve Marriott, whose passion and soul as a singer was unmatched, and he was a very accomplished guitarist as well. Not to mention he was approached by Jimmy Page to be the singer for Zeppelin, and by the Stones to replace Brian Jones. He was too big of a presence for Jagger, who vetoed him because he was a much better singer, and was too much of a volatile presence to be tamed by Zeppelin.

Gary Moore could make a guitar cry in such a way you felt sorry for it
