He reminded me of jimmy page on song remains the same dvd but with FAR more technical superiority and sophisticated harmony. i just hear the page thing in his approach and ferocity. it really made me smile! also love the david gilmour'isms in his playing.

would like to hear him on a more vintage tone to suite the track BUT playing was stellar. the bend at 1:42 is awesome! ferocious legato technique as well.
