    Well, everyone I know who plays a guitar bases themselves on another guitarist. Like my friend who plays with a very Slash (Guns 'N' Roses) style, while mine is influenced by Jimi Hendrix. I'm just asking who's guitar "style" doe yours resemble?

    It is a cross between Gary Moore and Paul Gilbert, at least I think so anyway.

    Base my self around? Well, no one really. I play like only I do. Badly. I do a lot of finger picking though, because I'm too lazy to find a pick half the time, and its good practise for those songs that require it. Make your own assumptions.

    My style is a mix of C.C. DeVille (Poison), and Randy Rhoads (Ozzy), with a bit of Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple & Rainbow) and Slash (GnR) in it too. I try to take influences from everything I hear.

    I play bass like Matt Freeman (Rancid), but I play guitar a little like Santana. Lots of chords/notes. Hendrix is also pretty easy to emulate.
