Greatest Guitarist

[pominoz]

I like my Blues and i like my rock...


So...Joe Bonnamassa.


Or if we are talking bass guitar then it's Mark King.

Was it you that put this clip up,the last time this type of thread was done?
If so,well done.
I had never heard of him,but boy can he play.

I forgot one...

Stevie Stevens.

Billy Idols old guitarist and now recognised in his own right. If you want a heavy metal guitar on your song he's the man to get. Awesome.

Greatest guitarist? That's impossible to answer, it's all about personal taste; but the 2 guys who've influenced me more than anyone else are Coxon and Marr.
Steve Cropper gets an honourable mention for what he brings to the song rather than the guitar.

I refuse to believe you!

I don't really class Metallica as really hardcore metal, I was talking more about the screeching screamers and the Korn's of this world.

Besides, take away Hammett's pedal and he's fucked.

Your spot on there mate this guy can play for sure. I posted that you tube clip after hearing him perform live on a Paul Jones blues programme,and couldnt believe it was just 1 guy on his own.

The Tommy Emmanuelle clips posted by Brass Neck were really impressive in this thread,hes just to good and could almost kill ones ambition to learn the instrument hes that far ahead in the zone.
A personal inspiration of mine is the underrated Mike Ronson who assisted Bowie during the Ziggy days and into Hunk dory.He also played a hand in the lou reed Transformer album co producing and performing.
