Who is the best guitarist?

I can't remember if I've posted in here, but the answer is obviously Frank Zappa.

 

i agree that jimi was/is one of the most influential guitarist of the electric era but their are other's too! oh and btw he could play the same solo more than once if you listen to his recording you could hear this!

 

Jimmy fucking Page!

 

It is pretty easy to look through the thread and see that you did.

 

john petrucci is pretty sick

 

Glasgow Kiss!!! :hurray:

 

< as i am solo.

 

Clapton
Allman
Hendrix
Richards
Young
Harrison
Stills

just to name a few

 

top three are jerry garcia, jimi hendrix, and david gilmour.

 

I'm talking about Improvisation haha.

Hendrix didn't like playing "out the book", that's why he went through so many R&B groups early on.

what people need to understand is that Jimi was at a level with the guitar where he was basically thinking out loud whenever he played.

 

Steve Morse. Not necesarily his days with Deep Purple, but more his solo stuff and with the Dreggs.

 

jimmy hendrik -1 jimmie paige 2-

 

Jerry Garcia
Trey Anastasio
Duane Allman
Warren Haynes
Dickie Betts
Jimmy Herring.
The guitarists from Moe and Umphree's are pretty good.

 

You could never say whose the greatest that's a unethical ideal to bring about, but still a fun subject to bring about so I'll say a bit of my favorites and my opinion alone most influential. I'd say Robby Krieger, Erik Brann, Ron Asheton, Marc Bolan and of course Jorma Kakounen if that's how he spells it.

 

deserves reposting
