What a shame Buckethead isn't into live looping! http://www.digitalburn.org/the-complete-list-of-bucketheads-guitar-gear/ Although it's not very exciting with the backtrack, I like his tone and phrasing. He is not afraid to stay with classic "rock guitar vocabulary" but he does it with a nice twist and doesn't lose his flow when going "off sync" during scale runs. Actually, passing in and out of that "havoc zone" makes those standard lines better IMHO. A nice example on that Paul Bley quotation "Practice makes perfect - imperfect is better".
