Top ten guitarists? Or maybe more.
« Reply #75 on: February 06, 2008, 10:02:08 AM »
Not saying these are THE top ten, but they are MY top 10

1.  EVH
2. David Gilmoure
3. Angus Young
4. Hendrix
5. Randy Rhodes
6 Glen Tipton
7. Jimmy Page
8. Joe Perry
9. Richie Blackmore
10 Zakk Wylde


Why I didn't include:

1.Steve vai - This is what a computer would sound like if it were programmed to play guitar.
2Slash - Yes his stuff was cool; but same sound same pentatonic solos ?  Saw him at the hammersmith and was totally underwhelmed -  the other guy from VR seriously played the better solos!

Vai has more feeling in one note than those players listed have in their entire careers.

And a good day to ya.

Don't get me wrong i'm not slating him; but there is such a thing as over engineering.

It all just sounds a bit to clinical to me.

Didn't you put hendrix in your list above vai anyway! :wink:

I don't know why I said that-must be because I am slightly drunk and I think everything is funny.

Whats with the Bobby Charlton one?

The next Rammstein guitarist might be someone like Claudia Schiffer :P
