    Nyree,

    Great example of how precise the pros are. Talking Zillions of hours on that riff I bet.

    I totally agree.

    Another Aussie guitarist, who is best known for her Michael Jackson’s ‘this is it’ tour is Orianthi

    I saw her introduce for John Mayer.

    Nyree,

    She is impressive.

    Did a little research on her and yes I remember seeing her in many important roles.

    Here is a quote from her at a very young age which is fitting… “I begged my dad to get me a secondhand electric guitar so I could be like Carlos,” she says….

    She is a real demonstration of that ” Dreams do come true… if you are true to your dreams”…

    You may be interested in Jennifer Batten; she is one original electric guitar player… She also has done a lot of clinics and her tapping is very well recognized…

    Here is a comment from a clinic attender “I’ve been playing guitar for? 42 years and I think I am good enough to shine Jennifer’s shoes and carry her luggage”

    Jennifer is one of most creative electric guitar player I have ever heard. and Orianthi is well on her way .

    Best Regard

    Stevo

    PS : Not well recorded is an unrehearsed example at a clinic,

    Nyree,

    Here is clip with Carlos’ opinion of Orianthi , yikes ! Not Bad!

    Hey, thanks for the clips.

    I’ve heard it said that there are plenty of guys who can do this stuff, so she gets the cred and noticed because she’s female.

    I don’t know well enough to say either way.

    Still it’s nice to have someon to look up to.

    Nyree,

    Not sure if you are familiar with Bass Players, However, can’t remember her name , my all time favorite is the female bass player for Jeff Beck. I first saw her when Jeff Beck performed at an Eric Clapton , then later at many of Jeff recorded live settings , the most recent at Ronnies. She has one of the most complex yet precise rhythm and melodic nature to her playing, I have seen not only for bass player but for guitar players. Her physical facial expression tell you a lot about her.

    Hmm, funny.

    Maybe we should have a new thread about the funniest faces guitar players make?

    That would be interesting!

    Speaking of bass players, this one’s great!

    This is a local band where I come from, “woohoo revue”

    The fiming’s not so good though, hard to see her in the back.

    Nyree,

    Thank you find band.

    Here is what I spoke of ; Tal Wilkenfeld

    The facial look from Tal at just after 1 minute tells it all ; shows it all and you know it all worth the hard and enduring she has done to get to this level of performance, which she has which is significant. If you get a chance read her resume, there good reason why she has gotten to this point as a professional. We all also realize the significance of Jeff Beck; at least those of us who follow this style and for him to select her as the bass player ; as he would only have band member which would challenge him day in and out at this time in his age.

    Best Regards,
