Did you actually just say the the guitarist from Opeth is an acoustic great?

As far as acoustic songwriting and harmonies go and with meshing acoustic and heavy parts together, yes.

The acoustic parts he writes really speak to me, if that makes sense.

No not at all actually.

Music is subjective kid. Certain styles of certain people on certain instruments can speak to different people in different ways.

God, I love when people younger then me call me kid. You're a fucking idiot,
Mikael Åkerfeld has nothing on some of the artists that people have posted here.

As Wh0racle would say, "you nigger".

He's written some great stuff, but in the term "acoustic greats" I'm pretty sure technical skill is a big factor, not just composition

Ooh, wow. the point of this thread is to post your favorites? Wow, that sure does make you sound like an idiot doesn't it. I posted one of my favorite artists that does some acoustic work.

Other than age being an accurate representation of life, you're a fucking child.





True, but in just about any other genre artists that pioneered it started out being somewhat unskilled and not nearly as technically efficient as they are today. I think composition is far more important than technique. If you're technically superior to everyone but you can't write for shit then you're terrible.
