I'm just gonna piss everyone off and say Buckethead and Herman Li. (Even though Hendrix etc are better they never played as fast or with a kfc bucket on their head)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enough said about Buckethead. He rocks!

Dimebag Darrell. His mastery of a fret board both with powerful riffs and an incredible ability to solo mashed in with his ability to write music still makes me question whether he was a human being. I have my suspicions... :anxious:

 

 

 

Im pretty sure if he was some form of God he could have stopped that bullet.

this should of been talked about diff, you cant say who the best is, even in your own opinion, because you havnt heard them all, nor they generes

 

 

 

People listen to diff stuff, ive read here lots like jimmy, but hes not the best, hes not, he might be the best in that genere, but not in the worl, they dudes from dragonforce are better, all metal bands are better, etc you get what im saying

 

 

 

this should of been

Damn, I don't think I could make that list better myself.

 

 

 

Only one i'd add would be Steve Vai, for sheer technical virtuosity.

 

 

 

As for my personal favourites, Jack White for those killer raw blues riffs, Clapton for the sheer energy and emotion he adds to his playing, and Gilmour for...well just writing some of the most powerful solos ever written. No one has a sense of melody quite like Gilmour.

This CAN NOT be decided. because, the genres.

 

 

 

its like comparing apples to oranges.

 

 

 

like, if you compare a Rock guitarist, to a Metal Guitarist, the metal guitarist will win, because thats how the music is played.

 

 

 

look at speed metal, the only speed metal band i know is Dragon Force, but they have the MOST INSANE guitar i have ever heard, but that doesnt mean they are the best, nor can they be compared to a different genre.

 

 

 

i know this isnt what this topic is about but still.

 

 

 

If you were to do this, you really can only say. Whos the best guitarist of the _______ genre.

 

 

 

because as i said, a metal guitarist will take a rock, or pop, or country, etc, speed metal guitarists will take metal, Technical death metal guitar will take metal, death metal will take Metal, Black Metal will take Death metal, i can go on and on.

 

 

 

 

 

your better off saying, whos your fav guitarist. because Whos the best? cannot be answerd.

 

 

 

but my fav. i would have to say is Herman Li (dragon force)

 

 

 

but i cant even really say that, because all my bands guitarist are my fav, they are all to closly matched.

 

 

 

but out of Respect Dimebag takes the win. he was, and always will be a legend!

For me?

 

Andres Segovia and Buckethead.

 

Andres Segovia because he pretty much changed the guitar from the gypsie-only instrument to a classically acceptable instrument. And he was brilliant.

 

Buckethead because of his innovations with the guitar, and his speed.

 

So basically both because they think/thought outside the box to a great extent.

Cool.
