Fastest guitarist?

i was just browsing the web and saw this name ANDY VAN HATCHER. He says

"I HAVE APPLIED FOR THE GUINESS BOOK OF RECORDS IN APRIL 2005.
I PLAY 75 NOTES PER SECOND AND BEYOND, HOW DO I PLAY THAT FAST?
WELL I HAVE BEEN PLAYING FOR TOO LONG, AND HAVE STUDIED THE SCIENCE AND MOTION OF GUITAR SPEED FOR 20 YEARS, BETTER KNOWN AS SHRED.
I PERFECTED MY SPEED TO THE POINT WHERE YOU LITTERALLY CAN'T SEE MY HANDS MOVE, AND I BE PLAYING FROM THE 1ST TO 24TH FRET IN LESS THAN A SECOND.
WITHIN EACH STROKE AND PACE I REGULARLY MELT MY PLECTRUM DUE TO THE FRICTION, AND I GO BEYOND THE TERMONOLOGY OF SHRED, AS EACH SHREDDER SEEMS TO BE REPLICATIVE TO EACH OTHER.
ALAS I HAVE CREATED SOME NEW BEYOND SPEED AND I CALL IT SONIC MOTION."

go to his website http://worldsfastest.*********38.com/index.cgi is this guy for real? 24th fret in less than a second. personally i think its crap, i would definately need to see a video of this.

I'm not completely sure on this, but I believe Steve Vai holds the record for fastest solo.

While we're on the topic, speed isn't everything. Listen to Satch (Vai's teacher). He's not the fastest but the amount of emotion he puts into his music is brilliant. His technique is also perfect.

Actually I think Joe Satriani might hold that record, ironically enough.

Not sure whether it's been broken, but I definitely recall reading that in a guitar magazine a while back.

Fastest guitarist? Personally...who cares? I'd rather listen to a talented guitarist than some guy who is fast.

i know i know. i mean i cant imagine someone making a sweet tune at like even 30notes/second, but its still interesting to know who plays the fretboard at the fastest pace.

Nah I have that G3 of Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Yngwie Malmsteen, and Yngwie beats them both when speed is the matter, also Michael Angelo is uber fast

He doesn't 'beat' them though, it's just that his style is shoehorn nine hundred notes into each bar. The other two are more tasteful.

Dude, Vai is all flash. If you're version of tasteful is by emotion, than Satch is better than Yngwie, sure. Vai's a bit more emotion than Yngwie is, but they're basically in the same boat.

Vai isn't anything to do with Yngwie.

Have you heard the things Vai does on Zappa's music?

I said they are more tasteful than Yngwie. His style is speed over everything. The other two utilise speed as well as many other things.

Vai is the most well-rounded player of the three.
