POLL - BucketHEAD VS Finck's guitar solos

[SuddenDeath]

Alright, after listening to a tons of shows from the last tour I really like Finck's guitar solo's a lot, tonally they are perfect... But he play almost the same thing every time (like in Chinese democracy, or The BLUES)...

Buckethead on the other hand seems to improvise a lot more in concert, rarely playing the same solo twice.

So which do you like more?

Personally I go for BUCKET... I love it when musicians play different parts in concert.

That's a little bit of a prejudiced poll, eh?  Stating clearly in the thread what you think - just put their names man.

Bucket solos are neat. Finck has cutoffs, all the time, he has little "interruptions" while he plays.

So, by far I go with BH.

Fink's solos are fucking terrible.... the wanking he does before Paradise City, the screw-ups on Sweet Child, and who knows what the fuck he's trying to do on November Rain.

I'd be happy with just one freak and Fortus.  I voted Bucket.

i agree with u and Axlrose_7 (hi manuel).  i think Finck is crap.  Bucket has impressed me with his playing on a musical level (ignoring technical skill for a sec) more than Finck.  Finck does have severe issues playing live.  He is THE most nervous player.  As a guitar player, you can hear the stops etc and delayed notes are not musical, they are because he isn't sure where to go next on the fretboard.

Finck is a great guitarist but his style is too "choppy"

[bitchesnmoney]

Well I voted Finck. There's a lot more into a guitar player than just move your fingers fast. Finck has a lot more presence than Bucket. And I really like his style.
By the way, Fincks solo on November Rain takes that song to a higher level. Man and I used to hate that song!  :guitar:

[estranged.1098]

Finck is the man!

[F*ck Fear]

Buckethead!

I think we should stop these Bucket vs. Finck. vs. Fortus pollgame.
They are all three awesome guitarplayers with their own unique style and great skills!!
I've heard those soundboard mp3's lots of times now and what this guitartrio can do together is the best guitarwork I've ever heard.
It is just mindblowing! So beautiful!. Listen these mp3's for example:

Nightrain - RIR3
You Could Be Mine - Cleveland
Chinese Democracy - Boston
Rocket Queen - Boston

I can enjoy that so much!

Regards,

I'd go with Finck. Buckethead's technically brilliant, but his playing doesn't really do anything for me. Finck's stuff varies between sloppy, and brill (the SCOM solo at RIR3), but there's more feeling in his playing. That's my take on it, anyway.

listen to fink's solo for SCO'M @ boston...I think it sounds awsome that way!
