Best rock guitarist?

!JGunz_325 · 02-20-2012, 10:46 PM

I think Herman Li (DragonForce) is pretty awesome.

My buddy James from Korn

stovesax08 · 02-21-2012, 04:47 AM

Petrucci. Hands down one of the most versatile and talented guitarists

johanness · 02-21-2012, 09:55 AM

I can't believe no ones mentioned Yngwie Malmsteen. It's him or Steve Vai hands down

i love some synyster gates

and obviously gotta love slash

BayMoWe335 · 03-06-2012, 01:26 PM

Great guitarists here, but in my humble opinion, Slash isn't even on the same planet as a lot of these guys.

Rosco P · 03-06-2012, 04:09 PM

Did one of you actually suggest Tom Morello? Lol

Petrucci is the class of the field IMO

radix · 03-07-2012, 03:41 AM

Jimi Hendrix

Great shout. Gotta thrown Mark Knopfler in there too for his finger-pickin' badassness.

And pretty much all of the above too.

Remember folks, being a guitarist is not like being Highlander. There can be more than one.

I don't know about that. I think he's better than a lot of people give him credit for. Top 25 for me, definitely. Don't ask me where though!

This vid I found last night. From 3:28:

Roger Nelson = Jimi's Spiritual reincarnation, well, almost.

Prince sold his soul to the Devil at age 1

Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin.

RIP Randy Rhoads
