Mine would have to be either Paul Gilbert or Jason Becker. If you've never heard of either of 'em there are plenty of videos on youtube of them showcasing their abilities.
Paul Gilbert:
-Get Out of My Yard Intro
-Terrifying Guitar Trip
Jason Becker
-Serrana
-Fifth Caprice
-Air
David Gilmour, hes got the number one solo of all time.
kurt cobain. period.
angus young
Eddie Van Halen
umm.. that must be alexi laiho.. from Children of bodom .. hes top 100 best ever
Pwnd.
i'm with antknee, van halen all the way baby
Jimmy Page or Jimmy Hendrix!
lol, I guess jimmys are just good at playing guitar.
Van Halen. Crazy solos!
im still sticking with Angus Young :D
rofl Angus Young isn't that good Chris Cheney all the way or however you spell it. he's apparently the best rock guitarist Australia's had in 10 years.
btw anyone here play guitar. I DO :D
Oh I beg to differ! He IS the best guitar player! And I play guitar and bass.Quote:

If you have never seen or heard of him, check out you tube, there are plenty vids out there of him
Rofl I still think he's awesome. Have you seen him in concerts. he wears like old school, school clothes. but i'm still annoyed at them that they moved to the UK and call themselves English now. Our best band went to England :duh:Quote:

Yeah..I don't know. It's random. I don't even eat babies. I have no clue what it means either. I just didn't want to use the same name on this forum as another runescape forum..that way they'd know it's me. :P
And yeah, it is random.
hmm do u know jerry C ??

Probably would have to be Larry Sparks, that guy is good. :)

bucket head ftw!
Donald Trump. All the way. =]
Hmm, Mini List :D .
- Jimmy Hendrix
- Steve Vai
- Paul Gilbert
-David Gilmour
-Kurt Cobain
- ME!
- Chuck Norris (lol).
Dude Herman Lee for all you noobs who don't know him...
He's the dude with the really long hair...

I like bucket head better than herman..idk why..just do
are dragonforce drum beats even real..I try to listen to them closely and they sound all wierd.
probably Bob Dylan i think
Most of them aren't drum beats it's their guitarists... like in that vid its just the two guitars... but yea they also have a keyboardist but their drummer is pretty crazy.
Banjo Bill
Buckethead, Steve Vai, and Herman Li are the best IMO.
I play guitar too.
yes man! pink floyd all the way. then jimmy page, hendrix, eric clapton. oldies players mostly. it doesnt take that much skill to thrash somthing out. just fast fingers lolQuote:

My favorite guitarist would have to be Aaron Fink or Ben Burnley from Breaking Benjamin, whoever created the guitar solo for "Here We Are" in the new album, Phobia.
Well i dunno. Speed is cool but sometimes its just lame and gets boring.
I love adam jones from tool. When you first hear it doesnt sound all to great. But just some of the like swirling effects stuff is real cool. I saw them live earlier this year and it just blows your mind.
Chris cheney is ok for whoever said him :p Saw him last year and he was ok :p
Also <3 jack white. Haha he may not be the best but man he is awesome for coming up with cool little riffs. And when he wants to break free my god he unleashes hell. I saw him same day i saw living end and it was no contest. Jack just stood at front of stage while the crowd went ape and he just pulled massive 5 minute solos of all different styles. Was amazing
Also omar from mars volta/at the drive in s f-ing amazing. No one compares. Even if he does play weird shit. Saw them earlier this year. And my god. Even though the place i saw them has shitty accoustics it was just insane. Never stopping. They played for about 3 hours. With one break in the middle but other then that each song just flowed and they just kept going. It was awesome.
And just adding bass playing. cliff burton wins hands down. There is no chance anyone can beat him. Except for some people who have played slap all there life and that is there life. But yeah cliff rocked.
Also whoever said angus young was the best..... good grief.....
Im more into rock guitarists. Blues and stuff is ok. But i dunno.
Improvisational blues can be fun. I like Mars Volta, but yeah, they play some weird shit.
I saw Styx, Foreigner, and Def Leppard in concert about a week and a half ago. Styx was good, Foreigner sounded great for the five songs they play (pissed everyone off), and Def Leppard was amazing. Having it storm like crazy and being totally soaked just added to it. It was lightening and thundering all over, and it looked and sounded insane with the guitars going. . .Plus there was a mudslide, what more can you ask?
Awesome. A lot of the old school guys have their own definite style. It's much harder now for a player to make that same kind of niche. That being said, nothing beats a nice guitar solo from Brian May of Queen :)
Well if your talking classic rock dang mang of corse Hendrix an since Zeppelin is so good Jimmy Page and if your talking death metal oh well then ALEXI LAIHO FROM CHILDREN OF BODOM W000000000000000000TTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tom Morello FTW
