Spontaneous improvising with a heavier feel....more of a linear style of soloing (Uli Jon Roth, Yngwie Malmsteen) and more of a legato feel...

Here is a clip of Adis going for the funky bluesy Scott Henderson vibe....trusty Washburn 36 fretter guitar.....less of a vintage and more of a modern midrangy active pickups tone...mixing Lukather in there...
