lol, calm down there powerchord boy.

My favorite guitarist is Jimi Hendrix followed closely by Jason Becker.

I don't know what you mean by best. Most controversial, influencial, fastest, best technique?

I agree with you Pho

There are many defintions of Greatest.

Perhaps someone should start threads under each of your categories, this would be much better.

Would cause too many threads to pop up under "same" subject (as the mods would put it anyway). I guess I should have put "best guitarist in your opinion under the various categories" somewhere in the first post. My bad.

We have evidence of Afronaut's talent; we have none such in your case.

You could, of course oblige us...:huh:

John Frusciante, Jimi Hendrix, Joe Satriani, Brian May, Mikael Akerfeldt.

I have a fair few favourites.

Yeah, gotta give props to Brian May; he has a sound all his own. :)

Half of the guitarists in this thread I have never heard of ! So how can they be "great" ? They may be good in your eyes (ears) but surely part of being great means that you are known world-wide. Ex rocker from way back.

Ok? You're telling me you've never heard of Malmsteen and the like? And since those guitarists have been mentioned that you hve not heard of, why not download some of their stuff and give it a shot, you may be surprised (or not). Lets see your list.
