Best Guitarists of All Time!!!

[=Death Hunter=]

Rate your favorite guitarist! If yours isn't on there tell us who you think is the best!

 

Chuck Shuldner from Death had heavy influence on my etal playing

 

Garcia on my folky/jam band solo act stuff

 

SRV for my blues

 

and Malmsteen for his immaculate shred!!!

 

RIP Dimebag!!!!!!!!!!

 

I live an hour and a half from where he was killed at the Alarosa Villa. I was supposed to goto that show with a few friends but our ride backed out!!!! Crazy stuff!

[Chega]

I like Van Halen, it's relaxing watching how he gets high playing the guitar.

Does Guitar Hero count?

[JohnWayne]

IMO Robin Trower should be included in your list ..

Seen him in concert back in the late 70s and he owned the place..

Jimi Hendrix has long been acknowledged as the best EVER and its a well deserved title.

[Funksdead]

George Lynch from Dokken and Lynch Mob.

[SunLight]

Mark Knopfler, David Gilmour not on the list? (among the others mentioned, yeah Clapton too)

[GraveDigger]

the thing with polls such as this is that there is no right answer. All are these guys are great but none is the greatest. Rolling stone magazine claimed that the top 10 were as follows:

 

1. Jimi Hendrix

2. Duane Allman

3. BB King

4. Eric Clapton

5. Robert Johnson

6. Chuck Berry

7. SRV

8. Ry Cooder (actually tutored Keith Richards)

9. Jimmy Page

10. Keith Richards

 

 

I am not sure that i agree with Rolling Stone but they are more of an expert in this department than myself.

[abnerdog]

Eric Clapton!
