like Allan Holdsworth he sounds like a horns player wich is very cool IMO

I love REb Beach.
The DVD he did with Dokken is sick!
His playing in Whitesnake is damn impressive as well, even if he has to play second fiddle to Doug Aldrich.

Yeah that's some kick ass playing there..
I really really love this one though.. "Black Magic":

Black Magic is his best. I have his instructional DVD and he plays that song on there so you can see it.

I could figure it out note for note off the DVD if I spent the time - its that clear on the DVD. Great tune and one of my all time favorite guitar instrumentals.

Veeery very nice. How fluid and effortless sounding!

Instructional DVD, eh? What's it called? Any other good stuff on it?

It's called 'Cutting loose' - it's pretty good from what I recall...

[skorb]

he is great but damn that's an ugly guitar.

[gitfiddler]

the intro song to the video and the ending performance of black magic are awesome. on the video, he also shows you how to do the fluid, ascending tapping runs he does in 17. Beach is great

I've always liked Reb Beach but here lately I've been getting into his playing more. He is a outstanding player. In the Whitesnake DVD his playing is downplayed in my opinion.

I agree, if he wanted to I think that he could play circles around Doug. I thing that Dougs style is more in line with the John Sykes school which appealed to Coverdale......

[Monster Joe]

I don't know about playing circles around Doug. Doug is no slouch by any means. And probably fits Whitesnake's style better.

its amazing that Reb is second fiddle in Whitesnake...although doug alridge is amazing..check this out...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIOGwUkkVAk

I love 'em both, both are great session players, both are absolutely monster rhythm players, Reb is all around great guitarist, very versatile and seriously awsome jazz fusion player, he is one of the best tappers and has a huge bag of tricks (whammy, harmonics etc.) Doug has a great blues rock feel and is a great slide player, his picking hand is amazing and can make the notes really sing.

That being said Doug's tone just kills



btw. they also have become one of the best friends wich is really cool instead of competeing with each other.
