i used to frequent a guitar shop back in the 80's that levied a $2 fine to anyone who came in and picked up a guitar and played that song.

I mean, there's a reason nobody else uses it as much as he does. Because it starts to get ****ing annoying after a while. Every riff the guy writes is just, "Chugga chugga chugga WEEOOO, chugga chugga WEEOOO". Honestly, Zakk. It's been twenty or so years of that ****e now. Give it a ****ing rest already.

...now that I've got that out of my system, Sabbath with Ozzy.

It's pitch harmonics...not pinch harmonics lol. yeah i see your point but, I mean, Zakk don't give a damn you know? He likes playing that so he plays it. I don't think he even really did that to try to distinguish himself from others, I think he just played it and it stuck. I got to admit though they do start to get predictable after a while you can hear a song by him you've never even heard and pretty much know exactly when certain things will happen.

I once went to a place where they had a sign that said "No 'Stairway', no 'Sweet Child'." I picked up a guitar and started playing the intro to Sweet Child 'O Mine. No one said anything.

No one can quite make there guitar scream quite like him tho.

Wayfarer: And sure it may get old watching his solo's o on for hours but he has done a ton of work for other artists thats all different and fantastic.

Sabbath and Ozzie anyday. Apart from the self-titled debut and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath being a couple of the coolest albums that have ever graced the music industry with their presence, they're also responsible for this merry ditty, which is reason enough for my vote alone;
