"There's a reason why Steve Vai was cast as the Devil's champion in the guitar standoff scene of "The Crossroads" movie, and a ridiculously long list of mind-blowing guitar effects he could produce certainly added to his reputation of an established guitar wizard. His pick squeals are top-notch, especially when he lays on a note so hard that it makes your brain melt, or when he combines it with a whammy effect, making his guitar sound like a racehorse dying in horrible agony."
