Who do you think the best guitar player is? - GoFuckYourself.com

KMR Stitch · 08-27-2006, 08:47 PM

Dave Mustaine

Gets my vote.
I know we have GFY Guitar players on here -=)

tony286 · 08-27-2006, 08:57 PM

jeff beck doesnt the credit he deserves

Madame0120 · 08-28-2006, 05:40 AM

Bet this guy could play ANYTHING!

Worlds Best Ukulele Player!

dennisthemenace · 08-28-2006, 05:40 AM

Steve Vai

escorpio · 08-28-2006, 05:43 AM

Jimmy Page and
Jerry Garcia
are my all time favorites.

Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani.... to name a few

Mike_AWP · 08-28-2006, 05:54 AM

JOE SATRIANI

Mr. Mojo Risin · 08-28-2006, 06:02 AM

Jimi Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen

Twisted Dave · 08-28-2006, 06:11 AM

Slash

He's written some of the most awesome riffs and solos (and full songs of course), and has technique that most people don't realise he has. His tone is full of warmth, yet bite, and he's got melody down to a tee. He's the essence of quality guitar playing.

Vai and Satch are technically good, but fuck... they've written less good tunes between them than we have fingers on our hands.

Hendrix is a pioneer... but I think he's a tad over rated.

Tell you who can fucking rip it up... Prince! He's a sweet guitarist!

And Zappa could too.

But Slash is my favorite.

Spunky · 08-28-2006, 06:12 AM

Jimmy Page,Alex Leifson

agreed

SpacemanSpiff · 08-28-2006, 06:19 AM

SinisterStudios · 08-28-2006, 06:19 AM

Duh, Stevie Ray Vaughn

Klen · 08-28-2006, 06:26 AM

Brian May of course.

I say Roy Buchanan, Jimi Hendrix and Steve Vai for rock.

The guitarist I enjoy listening to the most, though, and whose music I can listen to over and over is Charo.

SpaceAce

Minte · 08-28-2006, 06:40 AM

Steve Morse,Eric Johnson,Tommy Emmanuel,Craig Chaquico are on my short list.

sickkittens · 08-28-2006, 06:42 AM

Best is too subjective. I'm sure there are guitarists who are "better" that alot of people never hear about.

Scootermuze · 08-28-2006, 06:53 AM

1Jimi Hendrix
2 Duane Allman of the Allman Brothers Band
3 B.B. King
4 Eric Clapton
5 Robert Johnson
6 Chuck Berry
7 Stevie Ray Vaughan
8 Ry Cooder
9 Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin
10 Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones

From Rolling Stone's Top 100 Greatest

Kinda strange that Chet Atkins isn't on the list, as he is the most recorded solo guitarist in music history.

Vasago Reno · 08-28-2006, 07:09 AM

Define "best".

As someone else said above - its far too subjective to really answer.

Best comes down to personal favorite I'd say.

I enjoy various aspects of a LOT of different guitarists, too many to pick a "best".

John petrucci, Joe Satriani and Stevie Vai should be on there too

08-28-2006, 07:22 AM

I think there was another topic on this...so I'll say The Edge again

I used to work for Slash. He's also a very nice guy, not a dick like most rockstars.

Twisted Dave · 08-28-2006, 07:35 AM

Nice one

Zakk Wylde hands down!

Nydahl · 08-28-2006, 07:58 AM

Patt Matheny for me
Anyway Its not possible to say this guy is the best - I think any question regarding skills of producing a music should start with "which 1 you like the most "

Timbo · 08-28-2006, 08:56 AM

1.) Randy Rhoads
2.) Eric Johnson
3.) Steve Vai

are a few of my favorites

AssPirate · 08-28-2006, 09:01 AM
