He is probably one of the most talented guitarists of the last 10 years. I'm a big fan...he has some control I haven't seen since Jeff Beck.

Yeah, that was posted in an older thread. He's awesome, but he really needs to get over himself. I love his playing, can't stand his act.

I love his stage presence. I've seen him in concert 4 times and he is the most interesting guitarist I've ever met personally (paid for the EVO experience and got to hang with him in person before the event).

Vai is good, but sometime I think his style is too electronic. I wish he would step back and just do somethig more stripped down.

EJ is the man. hes one of the greatest guitarists ever, IMO. hes largely unheralded outside of the guitar community, and thats a damn shame.
