| Kirk Hammett - Metallica | |
| Jeff Hanneman, Kerry King- Slayer Andreas Kisser- Sepultura "Fast" Eddie Clarke- Motorhead Trey Azagthoth- Morbid Angel | |
| Stevie Ray Vohn, and Dickie Bets | |
| Guys Check out Keller Williams on You Tube, He puts on a good show. FYI | |
| Joe Pass. Listen to "Virtuoso", "Unforgetable" or "One for My Baby." His work with in a duo format (guitar and tenor sax) on "Blues for Two" with Zoot Sims on tenor sax is unbelievable. Pass is like a band unto himself... | |
| Buddy Guy Jimi Hendrix Carlos Santana B.B. King Duane Allman Eric Clapton Eddie Hazel (Funkadelic) John McLaughlin Derek Trucks (The Allman Brothers Band, Derek Trucks Band) Warren Haynes (The Allman Brothers Band, Gov't Mule) Jimmy Page Neil Young Eddie Van Halen Robert Fripp The Edge Prince Pete Townsend Lou Reed Johnny Thunders (New York Dolls) Dave Navarro (Jane's Addiction) Slash Mick Ronson (The Spiders From Mars) | |
| Carlos Santana without a doubt. Jimi is a little to messy and Clapton a little to formal in my viewpoint on the cross spectrum. Many other excellent players in between and out there for sure but I think it comes down to style in whatever they play. I like guitar players who, no matter how famous they are, don't act like guitar gods. | |
| Well, technically, Herman Lee, obviously! But there's more 2 axeism than technique. When it comes2 musical talent, Steve Howe heads the field. Of the new generation, Matt Bellamy stars, but then he's a better pianist. The future? My nephew, Kellyn Levy, still a beginner, pairs the energy of Hanneman with the jazz mastery of Al DiMeola. Am I glad I gave him my equipment at 14! | |
| Jan Akkerman,one of the best guitarists the Netherlands ever brought forth...(he used to be in Focus ages ago, he still lives and works) | |
| Not in any specific order: Stevie Ray Vaughn, Santana, George Harrison, George Benson and Bonnie Raitt | |
| Eddie Van Halen Kiko Loureiro - Angra Kirk Hammett - Metallica Joe Satriani Angus Young - AC/DC Yngwie Malmsteen Andreas Kisser - Sepultura Me (lol.. just kidding) | |
| To go in a different genre, what about Chet Atkins and Les Paul? | |
| Don't think these two have been mentioned Brad Paisley is really good Tom Mirello - Rage Against the Machine | |
| My friends James Young from Styx and Bill Leverty from Firehouse. Also, how about Rik Emmitt from Triumph. | |
| Michael Angelo Batio Steve Via junior brown Chuck Berry Billy F Gibbons Ace Frehley | |
| MMMMM Let me think...I would have to list Les Paul (the pioneer of the solid body electric guitar)without which none of the above listed folks would have made the list...ooo and the creator of sound on sound music better known as dubbing..he also created things like "licks",,"chording"..."trilling"...many fretting techniques...was an incredible jazz guitarist on top of that and with his wife Mary Ford sold millions of records... I might have missed Chet Atkins listed if I did I apologize..Frank Zappa of course...Dickey Betts and to show my age Jorma KauKonen from the Jefferson Airplane which most of you are too young to remember...LOL.. I might also add that there are some absolutely trmendous "session" guitarists that have been left off this list as well...just a thought that they might be included too... and I agree with Eric...Prince is an amazing guitarist... | |
| I knew I had forgotton a couple of folks...from the Jazz side of the musical world Russ Freeman and Craig Chaquico...must have been a senior moment to leave those two out...LOL | |
| someone i think is right up there with the greats of the past is: SeaSick Steve... not only is he a great player butt he makes several of his own guitars, encluding one made from a plank of wood called a diddly bow and another one made from old hubcaps off of a Morris Minor!!! here he is playing with the legend John Paul Jones of led zeppelin.. | |
| In addition to all the axmen noted already: Lowell George Ry Cooder Leo Kotke Sonny Landreth Albert Lee Steve Cropper Nels Cline Trey Anastasio Larry Carlton Joe Messina David Lindley Dave Edmunds Lee Ritenour James Burton Mark Knopfler Bill Frisell Michael Hedges And since most all of the previous Guitar Gods mentioned in this topic studied, or were influenced by: Robert Johnson Jimmy Reed Chuck Berry Elmore James Slim Harpo Charlie Christian Mississippi Fred McDowell Reverend Gary Davis Elizabeth Cotton Andres Segovia Mississippi John Hurt T-Bone Walker Although they're mostly recognized as brilliant songwriters, if you really listen to what they're doing, they're also great guitarists: Paul Simon and James Taylor | |
| SoCalNudist knows his Guitarists! As one might gather from my online moniker, my favorites include Robert Fripp (technical virtuoso) Adrian Belew (techonological virtuoso) Tony Levin (Bass & Chapman Stick) Trey Gunn (Chapman Stick and Warr Guitar) | |
| Jimi Hendrixs hands down ... | |
| Allow me to sing the praises of Joe Bonamassa, a blues/rock guitarist and vocalist. I first saw him play live when he was about 18 and a member of a band with a very interesting pedigree called Bloodline (google 'em). I recently caught him again as a 34-year-old solo artist. He was receiving standing ovations after almost every solo, sometimes two or three per song! I've been fortunate to see some of the all-time greats in concert: Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy (twice), B.B. King, John McLaughlin (twice), Jimmy Page (twice), Carlos Santana (twice), Eddie Van Halen (thrice), Stevie Ray Vaughan, Frank Zappa, etc. I'm here to tell ya that Joe Bonamassa is easily one of the four or five best guitarists I've ever witnessed. Check out his LIVE FROM THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL concert on DVD and prepare to be amazed. | |
| I'm surprised no one has listed... Lindsey Buckingham - Fleetwood Mac | |
| Jimi Hendrix Roy Buchanan Buddy Guy Johnny Winter Tommy Bolin Alvin Lee just to name a few. | |
| Check out two other guitar genres: Classical: Andres Segovia, John Williams, Xhristopher Parkening, Julian Bream, Carl Volk, Fernando Sor. Flamenco: Paco De Lucia, Ramon Montoya, Nino Ricardo, Sabicas, Vicente Amigo | |
| Johnny Winter Duane Allman |
