Slash is a bad name

It follows, then, that you believe him to be a rather pissy guitar-player.Slash is a bad name

Slash and the Edge are not great they are just in well known bands.
As an ex muso from way back I always think that a great guitarist is one that invents their own style (sound) and is instantly recognisable.
Eg
Carlos Santana
Jimi Hendrix
Mark Knopfler
As for speed
Alvin Lee of Ten Years After was pretty fast.

I'll ad my sentiment to yours, as re: Knopfler.
He throws off a new noodle of some type every time he plays.
I am an avid fan.

I agree with all the above guitarists being great. and I would like to add Allen "robot" Van Wert. http://www.musichopper.com/

My boy had been learning guitar for about a year when I got the Live Aid DVD set for Father's Day.I'll ad my sentiment to yours, as re: Knopfler.

The first thing I watched was Queen, then showed him Dire Straits performance of Sultans Of Swing. He was suitably impressed.

I wouldn't say THE best, but John Petrucci is pretty good.
