How to judge the level of a guitarist
Hello, my friend, here are my criteria:

Main level:

1. In the future, the number of imitators will span the whole world, making it almost impossible or extremely difficult to replicate;

2. There are endless posts about what equipment they use, and even discuss their meticulous technology (such as how to use the bow on the Page);

3. Their own band has made great achievements and is undoubtedly the leader of the band (so slashes are not allowed);

4. If necessary, consider their influence outside the guitar field;

5. They also have other super powerful musical instruments (such as VAI);

6. Their representatives Riff and Solo are often used as textbooks to read and adapt (such as voodoo children), and they have lasted for more than 50 years (so Tong Ge is a tragedy …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Do it (Congratulations, Paige, you won, Harson, if only you had more skills and oil ...)

7. Pioneer of some technologies (such as Vai and Page).

Superb master:

1. Basically, it has a far-reaching influence in the whole cultural circle, and many people in this big cultural circle imitate him (for example, Jack Winter is a garage rock), which may be surpassed, but they have great recognition and the imitation difficulty is100%;

2. The band is at least a hall of fame in the future (such as radio conductor) and has won huge awards (such as john mayer).

3. Basically, partners are often real musical figures (such as john mayer and BB Gold);

4. There are many cross-style works (such as Jonny Greenwood).

5.Solo and Riff are highly recognizable. As soon as you hear it, you will know that they are playing, and occasionally they reach the level of "textbooks" (for example, the seven national armies and Creep inserted matches,

In fact, MUSE's plug-in baby has also reached)

6. Cross-instrument performance, a little skill transfer (such as Jonny Greenwood)

First-class master:

1. Guitar technology is definitely super, and some people imitate it, but it does not affect the whole cultural circle (slash has actually reached, but other standards ...);

2. The influence of the band organization lasted for more than 10 years (such as suede);

3. Cross-instrument bonus and a little skill transfer (for example, Harrsion used a little Sitar and Indian music to transfer to the guitar, even in composition)

4. Some of these people have had the painful experience of being played by others in their careers (or maybe they can't play with others themselves) (Harrsion is played by EC, EC is played by Hendrix ...), so this is a sub-item;

5.Solo and Riff are recognizable, but they are not much different from Solo and Riff in the field of pop songs (that is, you are a high-end version of pop musicians).

6. Basically, do you have any experience of working with super gods (for example, Buckethead Bucket Brother, you actually lack communication and personal experience ...)

Second rate:

1. Ensure good intonation and rhythm, and have a good solo level (yes, so you can retire from the position of folk guitarist).

2. The Great God is not cooperating with you because you are good at Solo, but because you are good at cooperating with you in other fields, such as sweeping the strings (yes, Keith Richard, I am talking about you, remember Chuck's evaluation of you? )

3. Being expelled from a band, or leaving this band, it is difficult for you to be a solo guitarist in another band (yes, Uncle Nuo, I am talking about you, although your melody is good, your technique is really mediocre).

4. There are many gaps in guitar technology, such as not being able to play the rhythm or point the strings (such as Suede's second guitarist).

Third-rate:

1. Being completely hung by the lead singer, unable to lead himself (a large number of Nu Metal guitarists were shot);

2. There will be no mistakes most of the time, but there is a black history of big mistakes (early slash, remember);

Neither 3.Riff nor Solo can write well. More often, the band's works are famous for their lack of guitar presence (does anyone know the escape plan or the name of Gala's guitarist? )

4. There is basically no advanced technology, and the sound of wow may be the limit;

Garbage:

1. Steal the limelight with the lead singer, but the audience has never seen you;

2. Bad temper, bad habits, drug abuse and alcoholism often affect grades;

3. The band is so rubbish that few people know it, and some are only famous in small cities;

4. What can I do besides sweeping the strings?
