Having a tough time believing that you are suggesting that Malmsteen is a better player than Beck. We all have different tastes and there’s no accounting for taste; but, let’s see....
Beck: beautifully nuanced expression, great control and variety of tone, tasteful and overall great musicianship with a lot of subtlety.
Malmsteen: bombastic, gratuitous speed with a technique that is not clean, no nuance or variety of tone; what players call a “thrasher” (and that hair! 😳)
Nice Nino de Pura, ‘though. Thanks for that.
