You know, I have that issue, and remember that pic. My memory retention for useless crap is boundless
 
Come on, that has to be a discoloration in the photo or print.......right? :confused:

Kind of like that school basketball photo that looked like the dude's wang was flapping out his shorts, but it was really the inside of a roll in his mesh shorts.
 
It's possible that he has Marfan Syndrome (think Abraham Lincoln), or another similar condition, where there is a defect in the connective tissue, resulting in a tall figure with long limbs and fingers/toes.
 
That dude does indeed have crazy long fingers....but he doesn't have an 8 inch pinky finger....come on now!

I remember hearing about those just being some prostetics(sp?) I mean obviously they can't be his real fingers. I've seen them before in other photos and they arn't that freakin long!
 
prob just a gimmick. i saw him gig with bill laswell and brain and he used a mannequin hand to tap. he had his sleeve all the way over it so it looked kind of spooky :-)

awesome player by the way. the most unlike guitar god you can imagine. his metal playing is waaaay up there with the best of the best. it's just that he can't seem to take it all serieusly, it often comes out as a parody. great tone. also does a hilarious michael jackson impersonation including moonwalk. friends with bootsy collins who produced 'buckedheadland' about ten years ago. has a little red kill switch on his custom white hollow body (there was a time he played exclusively on graphite steinbergers on account of the fact that 'other guitars don't last' - sec)
