He was mentioned in another thread and I feel my up-coming question deserves his own thread.
As we all know Brad Delson is the guitarist for Linkin Park. Now me and my friend have researched this and have realized Brad has been honing his guitar skills for upwards of 12 years give or take. Now..The question..
Pound for pound..is there a worse guitarist than Brad Delson?? Me and Chase cant find any-one that is..

12 years? I don't believe he ever played guitar in Linkin Park until a couple of years ago. That's funny that he would rather rap than play his "honed" sk1llz ;D ;D ...if he released a solo album I would totally hit that >_>

Him playing 12 years or so is what makes it funny. I've been playing for 5 or 6 and I'm not some insane guitarist but at least I can do more than play a 1-finger power chord once every 15 seconds *Sigh*..It just proves you dont have to be good to be famous..

i've been playing a year and i can write better stuff than him Has he really been playing 12 years? It could be coz Linkin Park don't like complicated guitar parts? Or maybe he's just crap ;D

Yep, but since the mainstream mostly likes simple music (where are the 80's? ), people don't care about the fact that his technique is 100% crap

Its just so funny about Mr. Delson..He actually wrote columns in Guitar World for awhile..I think he taught the Major Pentatonic Scale..
.............When has he ever used a scale in his life?? *Screams in a fit of rage*..
I sit and struggle to get good equipment and now I have to find a way to do my demo..yet someone who doesnt even care about being a good player has the easy ride *Sigh* Now Im depressed lol..

I couldn't agree with you more! He can just get every Ibanez he wants for free. Like I said before: life just ain't fair .

we'll 'borrow' Brad Delson's equipment he probley won't notice Of course he wouldnt notice..He couldnt see me BC Im too sneaky and he couldnt hear me with those cool guy head-phones on ..But actually If I met Brad Delson (Which If Im lucky enough I'll be able to one day).. I think Id just punch him in the face for 2 reasons..1 - Being such a bad guitar player. And 2 - For letting kids hear him play and ruining their chances of being something more than a big head-phone wearing 1-finger power chording 12 year experience pile of wasted talent ..

In his defense, maybe that guy actually has some talent, but the powers that be (ie: the people who sign his paycheck) don't give him money to show his talent. They probably drive dumptrucks full of cash up to his house and tell him to play a drone the way he does.
Odds are he probably has no talent.

That would suggest they control what he writes in his column as well...

I think Brad Delson is the worst guitar player in the world. I don't know why he get so much money and popular. Michael plays better 10000000000000000times. And nobody who is not a musican know Michaels music.

And nobody who is not a musican know Michaels music. This is why I'm in a band as well as do instrumental guitar stuff. It's really really hard for a guitar player to get popular if you're not with a band..It's just how popular music goes..
