So this setlist was put together by the android from The Body Electric?

Is this article heavy metal enough for me? Is it a hard rock article?? No new wave?

Does this new interest mean that you've gone soft and cracked and bought a ticket?

Yeah that's him, there's another pic from 1988 in Guitar Player's new talent column and another on the front of his pike #13 album, which appears to be from the 80s as well. There's no pictures of him after 1988 though.

And here is Buckethead's real face from his school yearbook 1985 when he was 16 years old.

Here's a good page for info on Holdsworth's equipment throughout his career: https://equipboard.com/pros/allan-holdsworth And here's a Buckethead one for comparison: https://equipboard.com/pros/buckethead

Yeah he started using them around the time he recorded Wardenclyffe Tower, although he still used the Steinbergers as well on that one.

Yeah he started using it around 1985 and it first appeared on the Atavachron album in 1986. He used it on all his albums after that actually, even when it was discontinued although he didn't take it on tour anymore because he had no one to fix it when it broke down, which it often did. Holdsworth was always ahead of the game when it came to guitar tech; he was one of the first players to use Charvel guitars, the first to use an Ibanez super-strat, one of the first to use a steinberger, one of the first to use a baritone guitar and one of the first to use a synthaxe.

Let's have a compromise...
