never paid much attention to that guy but he can play his arse off, that much is clear. love his tone here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyubyd68H9A&feature=related
He doesn't use much treble/presence in his tone. It's great, but for me playing, I would like more cut (maybe like the Marshall Jubilee, even a bit more). However listening to him, it's great to have such a homogenic sonic texture, it's much less fatiguing than listening to very treble intense players like Vai or Satriani.
