Actually a lot of great guitarists were part of the Grunge scene. Mike McCready of Pearl Jam, Kim Thayil of Soundgarden and though a lot of people don't consider Kurt Cobain to have been a terrific guitarist I think he was actually quit accomplished.. you just have to look past "nevermind".
It's just the bi-product of grunge .. when all those "pop-punk" powerchord bands came out like Greenday etc.
Grunge itself was made up of a lot of bands who came right from the 80's hair rock genre.. Pearl Jam was actually an "80's rock band" (called "Mother Love Bone") before their lead singer passed away and was replaced by Eddie Vedder .. so a lot of the guitarists from that era were rather talented.
