mike oldfield. he can do anything with a guitar. well actually he can do/play anything on any instrument, but he is best at playing guitar. just listen to his record called guitar. it is just awesomeness filled with more awesomeness and with an awesome cherry on top

Satriani is. . .mediocre. He sucks in comparison to a lot of other musicians - Jeff Beck is a trillion times better than Satriani at instrumentals and guitar-playing, for example.

I'd say either Clapton, Carlos Santana or Jimi Hendrix are the best.

I'm at a stand off between Jimi Hendrix, Kirk Hammett and Tony Iommi. It's really hard to pick.

A debatable topic... I'd go with either Jimi Hendrix or Eric Clapton.

Santana's pretty good, too, but he's not my favorite.

Every guitarist from Dragonforce is up there.However I have to say Jimi Hendrix because his songs are better and his guitar style is more of a soothing sound.

I almost never make an uninformed statement. I've listened to a lot of Satriani's music - he's not bad, but in perspective, he's extremely far from the best.

I think YOU need to listen to music from other great guitarists. I'm a music freak, and trust me, Satriani is mediocre. Ironically, Kirk Hammett is far better than he is, and Satriani taught him. >.>

I agree. There are a lot more guitar players better than him.

Jimi Hendrix has that nice psychedelic style that is so cool. I really like Carlos Santana too because of his smooth style. I like Angus Young a lot too, because he is pretty good in the studio, but his live performance is outstanding.
