Still have my cassette of his Shrapnel years. What a monster player man. Here is a lesson of sorts he was giving. Man, he knows his theory and his techniques are so advanced. This is old school shit.



Love that guy.
 
I bought this instructional from him back in 2004ish. He was way ahead of his time regarding the legato and two finger taping stuff. He inspired so many wonderful players, Scott Stine, Darryl Gable, Christian Muezner.

I really like his Eniac Requiem release. It's like Dream Theater, meets Symphony X, meets the Beatles, all around a Space Odyssey theme. Very brooding and melancholic, with plenty of great playing.

I have the same guitar! I liked Peat better, but Dystrophy has some cool moments. I feel like he was a little too grungy for my tastes on those releases. His playing on Scott Stines release is good too. Scott is another monster, along with his brother in Haji's Kitchen. Man, I can't even imagine what the Dallas scene was like in the early 90's. Pantera and these monsters.
 
That was awesome! I never had the patience to sit and really focus on learning scales. I know a few parts of them now and play riffs that I know are actually a section from a scale but since 85' I've been self taught and play by ear. With that said, I wish I would have learned a lot of that stuff. I've tried but there is something very "Math-like" to me about scales and trying to remember them is something I just can't do.
