That's who I had in mind as well.
But as Cliff suggests, for every electric
solo guy, there are a LOT of acoustic solo guys.
And that's even if you don't take into account
classical players.

How many guys right here on this group, do an
electric solo act or even a single piece?

Contrast that to the guys here or RMMGA that
do a solo acoustic thing.

I do both, but I'm pretty much a freak of nature.
