Who's The Best Rock Guitarist of All Time?

[Chet Who?]

Anyone remember Steve Gains?

 

[Derision]

David Gilmour
Mark Knopfler
George Harrison (a lot of his stuff was pretty low-key, but c'mon... the guy could play everything)
Hendrix
Dave Gregory (obscure but good)
BB King
Buckethead (absolutely ridiculous, but a damn good guitarist)
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Jeff Beck
Pete Townshend

There are more but... those are pretty much my top.

billy gibbons from zz-top and he's a really cool car guy
by the way cliff burton (yes he's a god but..) is a bass player. so he really shouldn't be on this list. he is definately the jimi hendrix of bass though. for those who haven't seen him play, listen to the first 3 metallica albums. the sick guitar intros...are done on a bass!!! (they play them on a guitar now) you'd never believe it unless you see the videos. the sickest it the instrumental anesthesia (pulling teeth) from Kill 'em All it's ALL bass.

ZZ-Top plays 'B' notes on most of their music & are good. Billy Gibbons is a great guatarist, hotrod enthusiast & really nice person when ya meet him. I'd love to see his 33' Ford(red streetrod)
