Yngwie Johann Malmsteen
Voted World's #1 fretter for 6 years in a row
Sadly suffered a car accident....ever since then he hasn't been quite the same but he has made some of his best work in that time

Founder of neoclassical rock.
He was influenced by the works of Vivaldi...Bach and such composers.
Which is why you will see that a lot of his work have a "classical" feel.

---> Neoclassical
