Haha!! I learned everything I needed to know from Frank! When I saw his first instructional video it made me realize I could incorporate so many of Frank's revolutionary and unique concepts into my own playing using hybrid picking it changed my life. I recently interviewed Frank on my KZfaq channel talking about this very thing. He's been such a great friend and inspiration to me for so many years now. Frank is a true original and comparable to Allan Holdsworth for me. Such a singular voice on the instrument. He completely redefined it for me. Please check out Frank's online school and all his instructional material. It's a wealth of amazing information that I've benefitted from. Cheers, Brett.

Seeing Frank up close each week in open counseling sessions when I attended G.I.T. I can say he's even more amazing than these clips show. For example students would come in & ask to play songs out of the real book & it didn't matter what they picked he would just open up the book & without hesitation he would play the song & shred solos at crazy speeds as he went through all the key & chord changes & still make it all sound good & effortless without any prep. Seeing how fluid he was is what got me to switch to using economy picking up until then I was using alternate.

I like Brett the edge because Allen Holdsworth is one of my favorite guitar players and Brett is obviously influenced by him. His phrasing is just so good. Gambale I love watching because he makes me laugh because of his really fast descending arpeggios. It's unique and insane. NO ONE can copy that. Frank is like "watch me shread". Love both tho.

I was going to give it to Garsed for more diversity and more "artistic" leanings in styles. Some of the earlier Frank Gambale stuff was a little scratchy and was heavily reliant on the sweeping to the exlusion of other things. ( i suggest listening to both players with eyes closed ) However, that last piece that Frank played in front of Chick , the straight ahead jazz thing, Gave Frank the edge, The subtle pausing, leaving space in between notes like a sax player, at least in the beginning, was very impressive. Both phenomenal players.
