When you get to a certain skill level, it's not about who is best, it's which you like better. Reb is a better 'tapper', Doug might be a bit faster. It's like asking who is better, Michelangelo or Da Vinci? They are both masters at their craft.

Wow, it is great to see these two fantastic guitarists together. They compliment one another working as a team. They don't have anything to prove, or anything to compete over, so they push each other to creativity, the music being the only goal. A lot of young bands could learn from them, not just licks, but about working as a team.

Love you, Doug!

Two of the best right here. 🔥🔥💯💯💪💪🎸🎸🎵🎵🎶🎶

Both monsters of their craft. I like them both for entirely different reasons.

Doug and Reb🌹Doug so beautiful, I love style🥰

I love both Reb and Doug as players and they certainly both have their strengths, which are many. The main thing that always stands out for me when watching Doug play though, is how he can wear the guitar as low as he does, and shred the way he does on a thick bodied/necked guitar like a Les Paul (not sure what neck profile he uses). He's one of a few who can along with John Sykes, Zakk Wylde and Gary Moore... With that huge tone, it sounds epic...

THIS IS AWESOME

Exelente rola me encanta genial🇲🇽❤️

some people may think they're trying to OUT DO each other , not the case at all !! There is a definite , complimenting , Duo mentality here , definite respect for one another , both know each is schooled, each has their influences , although both have the same , each has a style , which is limited by L P vs STRAT . This picture looks more like Jeff Watson and Brad Gillis , Murray and Smith , very nice chemstry here and neither feels threatened by the next its obvious !! Two seriously underratted , overlooked guys !! Read lots of Doug's stuff in Guitar magazine , think was also doing stuff for Guitar World mag also but was mainly with Guitar Magazine ! Heard Reb when seeing the Seventeen video of Winger and was Blown away , how tasteful he was , yet flashy and knew this guy was no lightweight !!! Ofcourse Reb has the fame with Winger, a session guy for Chacka Khan and others , no one ever knew or gave a shit surely but when Winger came around , he surely stamped his mark on the scene. Doug , is he lessons guy , surely known to all but nothing recorded really and always wondered when he would do something. When Sykes left Whitesnake , always thought he would be a replacement but oddly Vai came in which was as rather odd twist but Doug always seemed like the man for the job !!!!

Both Doug And Reb are fantastic guitarist each has his own take on the way they play,if this was not the case we would end up with clones.

2 of my favorites. Yeah we know Sykes is God! If he was he would be out playing like these two on the road using they're talent instead of layed up in a fckn cave somewhere on fckn drugs or whatever doing nothing. Love Sykes and was my favorite at one time but come on man.

I've been getting the solo to "Still Of The Night " up to speed and on time. I don't know why, I haven't played a gig, or even done a video in years.

hahahahahaha, além de tocarem muito, são uns figuras!!!!

Reb rules

good jamming

nice guitar solo

Reb Beach is not only a good guitar player but also very smart..he knows to modestly shine because when you shine too much Coverdale will swap you for an other guitarist. Thats why Sykes had to go...his raw talent and sparkling presence did cost him his job with whitesnake. Aldrich doesn't have to worry about anything..hes just enjoying the ride for as long as it takes with WS.

Two of my Favorite Guitar Players-Reb Beach did a Guitar Clinic here in Ft Myers Fl in the Late 80*s-at Brent*s Music Head Quarters-He was really down to Earth and had over 50% of the attendee*s-Hot Females-I ask him to play his lead part on SEVENTEEN-Smokin*Hot!!

What are these two doing? Reb looks just exactly like a childhood friend of mine, and band mate, Howie. Howie is probably one of the greatest guitar players I've ever heard and had the privilege to play music with. Howie is a Randy head, that explains why he's such a great guitar player. Back in the day we would work for days learning music and solos with an old cassette player...rewind and play. Now if I want to learn a tune, I simply try to find a tutorial. Yeah I know, but I've done my share of "ear training ". Actually it would amaze you to see how much Howie and Reb not only look like, but act like as well.
