Jerry Reed I knew about, thanks to my cousin. I'd never heard of Albert Lee until now and was quite happy to finally get to learn some new musicians out there. Its always a pleasure to find a new artist that you can really get in too. Great job on posting this up and helping to get the names of two very talented pickers out there into the community. Good job on this one, man. -Shane

Picking wise, any of you guys hear of Paul Gilbert? A current guitarist from American (tours Japan a lot too) Ex Mr. Big and RacerX guitarist... Look him up on YouTube or similar... His right hand picking technique is AWESOME!

The first person to come to mind would be Jimmy Bruno. He has a phenomenal picking technique. Check out Burnin'. It's self explanatory. The other person that comes to mind is Guthrie Govan. He is one of the most amazing guitarists I've heard. He's excellent in all aspects of guitar playing. His album is called Erotic Cakes.

Jesus Christ! Guthrie Govan is Awesome I have his album, "wonderful slippery thing" is a brilliant track! One section in it sounds like sweep picking, but actually its his flawless legato technique with tapping (and string skipping for that matter!!) Brilliant guitarist, British too. He also features on the licklibrary.com DVD's

And if you like those two guys, check out the playing of Lee Hodgson who also happens to teach at the ICMP. A very underrated, unknown player...
