rick_here Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 Jeff Beck says, "Eric Clapton." I'd say "both." And would add: Mike Keneally Steve Vai Henry Kaiser and anyone else who does it right in their own genre/style.... "Anyone" can play Neil Young but: He's The Guy Who First-Did-That, see?

Sacred Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 I only went by the list, so I picked Randy, there are too many guitarists that are my favorites to mention here. Long live Randy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StratDudeDan Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 top three (in no order, i like them the best of their own styles, none of them better than each other) Eric Clapton Jimmi Hendrix Angus Young clapton because i just find more emotion in his solos and songwriting than in most, hendrix for the power and energy he puts behind what he plays, and angus because anyone that can roll around and contort himself like that and still play a screaming solo is just cool. plus, i like his SG...a lot...
