Favorite Guitarist

Ok, this might cause some arguments so please try not to :) Whos your favorite guitarist and why. Please dont just be like "Oh well he sucks" that will start a fight, please dont just post to say something negative try to make a point please :)

Anyways I'd have to say its between Dimebag from Pantera \m/ and Yngwie Malmsteen. Dimebag was a phenomenal guitarist from our time, one of the best ever. He was so amazing and to top it off he was a kick ass person. Yngwie I've met aswell adn hes an asshole to everyone who meets him. Hes stilla an awsome ****ing guitarist but yeah, Dimes music and band apealed to me more than Yngwie even if he was better than Dime its still all just matter of oppinion :)

All time, I would have to say Hendrix. Recent I would say Dimebag.

dime, angus young, zakk wylde, hendrix, stevie ray vaugn, kirk hammet

See Hendrix was cool, hes was good, but not great most of his stuff was incredibly easy but he made it sound extremly cool. I'm not saying all his stuff was easy but most

SRV all the way

SRV all the way

three of my favorite guitarists that are recent would have to be either dimebag(pantera) jon donais(shadows fall) or alexi laiho (children of bodom) \m/

Man... Your my new best friend ^^D

I don't think how easy a song is to play, is a way to measure talent or skill. If you practice enough you'll eventually be able to play any song that was written. Hendrix had a sound that no one else did and nobody else was ever able to recreate it or change it to make it theirs. When you hear Hendrix on the radio, you know right away that it's Hendrix. You can't say that about too many guitarists.

mine is angus young, and jimi hendrix

Hendrix
Lenny Kravitz
Tom Morello is alright too

****, I forgot to mention him, hes so good. He was named next guitar legend ^^D

Jimmy Paige, jon donais, Hendrix, joe satriani and John Petrucci from Dream theater

Rusty Cooley < the god of sweep picking, Slash < i love his style, definitly made GNR one of my fav bands, Ry Cooder < awesome blues/classical, Malmsteen < definitly a great shredder, Joe Stratini, SRV, Steave Vai, BB King, Zakk Wylde, Dimebag, Erno Vuorinen from Nightwish, i could go on for hours but those are some of my favs.

i think the best guitarist would be John Petrucci from Dream theater.

i like the guitarest from soad because he does some fast shit
