Guitar Player - Guitar Superstar 2008 Program - (Page 9) JOE SATRIANI Joe single-handedly revitalized instrumental guitar music in 1987, when he released Surfing with the Alien—a life-changing album for scores of the world’s guitarists. Currently, Joe is designing gear (most recently the Vox Satchurator, Peavey JSX signature amps, Planet Waves accessories, and Ibanez JS series guitars), touring to support his latest release Professor Satchafunkilus and the Musterion of Rock, and giving personal online guitar lessons at the Satch Zone (workshoplive.com/satchzone). A supporter of this competition from the beginning, this is Joe’s fourth year as a Guitar Superstar judge. STEVE VAI Since the release of Flex-Able in 1984, Steve has been one of the world’s most lauded and recognizable guitarists. He co-designed the popular Ibanez JEM series guitars and the recent Jemini distortion pedal. In a bold move, he has just released Naked Tracks, Vol. 1-5—a series of “play along” selections that offer Steve’s songs with his lead guitars mixed, inviting guitarists to loop his compositions and “discover unique musical ideas from within yourself.” BRENDON SMALL Brendon is the co-creator of Adult Swim’s Metalocalypse animated series, and last year’s hilarious host of Guitar Superstar. In a bizarre twist, real life imitated make believe as Brendon recorded Dethalbum posing as the show’s fictional metal band, Dethklok, and then toured the concept, performing live to projected images from Metalocalypse. The tour dates were sell-outs, and Dethalbum is, to this day, the highest charting death-metal album ever. GEORGE LYNCH Making his debut as a Guitar Superstar judge, the former Dokken virtuoso, solo artist, and Lynch Mob leader gives back to the guitar community through online lessons at his Dojo Guitar Academy (georgelynch.com). George has also co-designed the Randall Lynch Box amp, Zoom G2G effects processor, Morley George Lynch Tripler, and several ESP signature guitars (including the recent Super V SE). His latest album is Scorpion Tales. http://www.georgelynch.com http://www.georgelynch.com http://workshoplive.com/satchzone
