11.17.11 | No Dave Gilmour = automatic fail |
DinosaurJones
11.17.11 | I really can't agree with #6. But don't worry, that's only my opinion :) |
DeadBeat
11.17.11 | No |
jefflebowski
11.17.11 | so jazz guitar doesn't exist apparently |

11.17.11 | one word:
SLASH....................... |
wakeupdead
11.17.11 | i'm sure there is someone who just enjoys playing in his basement and hasnt been discovered, who has no interest in playing in a band or getting famous who is better than all those guys |
LimbsandJoints
11.17.11 | Some really good players on this list. Hard to say who's best, but Paul Gilbert is a fucking beast. |
KeithStone582
11.17.11 | Seriously needs Jimmy Page. |
ILJ
11.17.11 | Tosin Abasi |

11.17.11 | I Like all of the guitarists that you suggested but ım kinda into shredding thats why my list contains mostly shredders and ı love fusion jazz but ı dont know much jazz guitarists right now |
FearThyEvil
11.17.11 | Just no. |

11.17.11 | and also about yngwie malmsteen ı sometimes agree with dinosourjones but hes fast |

11.17.11 | but for me slash is not one of the best |
Mindblown
11.17.11 | In the words of Butthead, "Uhhhh.... no." |
jefflebowski
11.17.11 | yngwie malmsteen is a flawless technical guitarist and a terrible musician |
SnazSpaz
11.17.11 | David Gilmour! David Gilmour!
|
RooseveltsGhost
11.17.11 | At least Angus Young isn't on here. |
Athom
11.17.11 | For as technically proficient as a lot of shred is, it just bores the shit out of me. A lot of these are great musicians but they make really boring music. Nice to see Jimi on here. I love his bluesy stuff, there's a lot of emotion in it.
List needs Jay Mascis |
Enver
11.17.11 | if you consider commenting instead of writing simply no, ı will appreciate it because ı want to know what do you guys think |
TheNotrap
11.17.11 | All great guitar players, however David Gilmour should have been included here. |

RooseveltsGhost
11.18.11 | I don't understand how you can have John Fruiscante above John Petrucci, but have Buckethead above John Fruiscante. |
demon of surveillance
11.18.11 | Joe Satriani is pretty boring musically. Petrucci rapes the rest of these guys when it comes to composition. |
eternium
11.18.11 | Robert Johnson |

11.18.11 | Andy Mckee |

JamieTwort
11.18.11 | Not a big fan of guitarists like Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, I prefer guitarists who play with emotion and concentrate more on composition and feel. |
Jethro42
11.18.11 | Same here, JT. Name one or two of them, what are you waiting for! |

11.18.11 | haha ok.

omnipanzer
11.18.11 | I won't dispute the Shredders as the names I see I know and I know most of them are good.
Slowhand w/o Rory, T-Bone Walker, B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robert Johnson, Albert King, Eric Clapton or Buddy Guy is just confusing to me. |
JamieTwort
11.18.11 | I'm not saying the shredders aren't good, they're style just isn't really my cup of tea. |

11.18.11 | Buckethead is amazing |
omnipanzer
11.18.11 | Buckethead IS amazing |
omnipanzer
11.18.11 | He has the distinction of being able to be placed in the slowhand category as well witch is not typical. |
JamieTwort
11.18.11 | I still need to listen to some more Buckethead, most of what I've heard is great. |
omnipanzer
11.18.11 | Did you end up listening to Enter the Chicken JT? |
Acrosstheshield13
11.18.11 | "Seriously needs Jimmy Page."

11.18.11 | Personally I've prefered Buckethead's playing on stuff like Colma and Electric Tears to his more shreddy stuff.
That said, Nottingham Lace absolutely destroys, probably my favorite track by him. |

BaturTogay
11.18.11 | Paul Gilbert's creativity, energy and sympathy clearly makes him better than most of the guitarists. Still, Steve Vai is the father of modern guitar. Buckethead 5th, Yngwie 6th but Petrucci 10th? Really? No comment :D
By the way if you are putting shredders you could add Micheal Angelo Batio(not one of my favourites)... |
