The top 15 guitar players; according to me
Jimi Hendrix
The most bestest, amazingist guitar player ever.He died too young.
Eric Clapton
"Slowhand." The best thing since sliced bread.
B.B. King
Melting your soul for 83 years. (Him and Lucille)
Duane Allman
Revolutionized slide guitar.
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Dude. Check out that hat. Beside the point, he's a freaking awesome axe-player.
Jimmy Page
Count 'em, ladies and gentlemen. Jimmy Page has perhaps the greatest rock n' roll resume behind Hendrix himself. Stairway to Heaven, Heartbreaker, D'yer Maker, Houses of the Holy, Communication Breakdown, Dazed and Confused, Kashmir, Trampled Under Foot, Black Dog, When the Levee Breaks, The Immigrant Song and The Lemon Song.
Richie Blackmore
I've never seen anyone play as fast as Richie did on the solo for Child in Time (Dragonforce doesn't count)
Jeff Beck
A member of the trilogy of amazing guitarists to come out of the Yardbirds (Beck, Jimmy Page, and Eric Clapton).
Chuck Berry
Not necessarily one of the best, but one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll's history.
Carlos Santana
"Smooth" rock solos with a latino touch that will be "Calling" you to listen to them "Into the Night." (I tried to fit Black Magic Woman in there but I just couldn't do it)
Keith Richards
He can't get no satisfaction.
Kirk Hammett
A freaking blow your mind, headbanging, body thrashing guitar player. Check out "Suicide and Redemption," and you'll see what I mean.
Joe Perry
Aerosmith's lead guitar player was the master of hammer-ons and epic riffs. Check out Movin' On, and Sweet Emotion.
Eddie Van Halen
Some people say all Eddie does is tap, and tapping isn't hard. I disagree, check out the main riff of Hot for Teacher. No tapping there, ladies and gentlemen.
