go to youtube and search for rick graham guitar. I am sure some of you have heard of him as he was a suhr endorsee. I just read he switched to Ibanez. seems like an odd switch to me but he plays a lot of Ibanez in his youtube vids. he has a cool j custom actually that he shreds to pieces!!! the guy can play, technically brilliant, yet he does not over do it in his songs.
 
He's pretty well known in the online guitar community. He's a solid classical player as well.

On one of his Q&A videos he shows a video of him playing shred guitar in his teens. He'd only been playing a year or two and was sweeping & string skipping licks as solidly as I do now after umpteen years.

His weight loss program is pretty commendable aswell. Dude works seriously hard at everything he does & I guess it pays off.

His playing is pretty tasty and he gets some really good tones from his Axe FX
 
I saw a vid of him doing Cliffs of Dover sometime in the past year or so...he nailed it.
 
really great player and his buddy tom quayle is even better for my tastes.

Yep, was watching a DVD of Quayle tearing through some Steely Dan. Very impressed with his touch and control of the guitar. Rick is pretty unbelievable to with his economy pickiing...looks effortless
 
just watched a couple lessons on some of his licks, this guy is fast and accurate, hot damn!!
 
scotty anderson and tommy emmanuel are also freakishly great.
i wish i could pick up and acoustic and shred for 2 hours without repeating myself and entertain a packed house.
 
Having the shred chops plus knowing when to and when not to, very musical.
