You nkow what's funny? We sit here and talk about Slash's "Lack of technical ability," and we compare him to people like Satriani and SRV. Now just because he doesn't have the technical skills of such guitarists doesn't mean he lacks technical skills entirely. I mean, let's be honest, how many of us can play like Slash? I'm sure there's a few of us on here who can, and a few who can play even better, but that still doesn't serve to qualify him as a sloppy or technically lacking guitarist.
