i seen him the first time like 2 years ago on youtube absolutely amazing. hes so good i want to quit playing guitar haha. check out his song called For My Father

Yeah, that dude is phenomenal. I posted some of those links a few months ago, too. I wish I could play like that.

i've seen him live. He's nasty. there's another guy like him called MArk Scanga or something. But THE Nastiest guitarist is Herman Li from DragonForce and Me ( 9yrs and going)

i think he drops D tuning, so he can hit those chords easy

herman li plays very simple solos, he just plays extremely fast. a nasty guitarist would be someone like Andy Laroque from King Diamond. or say..kirk hammet before 1990. hell the boys in iron maiden used to tear it up , but all the albums after brave new world are super slowed down and mellowed out compared to old stuff.

Michael Angelo Batio is sick I know.
Herman Li is far from average/simple and it takes a lot of talent to sweep arpeggios at that speed. Kirk Hammet is great but overrated.
