Surprised you haven’t included Gary Moore in that list,cracking List though..

 

[big gaz]

Nice one @Protein Junkie enjoyed that, just glad Stuart got in ;-)

 

[bluetonium]

Thanks for organising OP. If there is any take away from this I suppose it is the average age of the contributors! That and / or there hasn't really been a decent guitarist who has grasped people's imagination en mass for years.

Do yourself a favour though, pick a guitarist from the list you've never heard of, and play one of his tracks. Nothing to lose.

 

[City Hobgoblin]

Any other votes for Craig Scanlon apart from mine?

 

[OB1]

Surprised you haven’t included Gary Moore in that list,cracking List though..

So am I: I thought that I had. Looks like he got accidentally deleted when I was finalsing list.
