Before the days of the Internet, the world of “known” guitarists was limited to what you heard on the radio or saw on MTV or by word of mouth. But today, we’ve got all sorts of sources for discovering great musicians. The Dawg often trolls the Internet in search of guitarists, and he’s found some great talent. In an effort to help spread the word about these guys and gals, I’ve decided to create a new section on the site to showcase some of the incredible guitar work that I’ve discovered.
The first guitarist I want to showcase is a guy from Mexico, named Cesar Huesca. I found him on YouTube when I was looking for Steve Vai videos, and this guy covered one of Vai’s songs. His technique is nothing short of incredible, and he’s got great expressiveness on the fretboard. I would call his style “melodic shred,” similar to Vai and Satch and Vinnie Moore. This dude absolutely ROCKS!!! Here are a couple of videos:

Wow, excellent find! I find it interesting to see what happens to guitarists who are obviously very talented. Do they end up “making it” or do they remain in relative obscurity forever? It’ll be interesting to see what happens to Cesar!
Good stuff.
