1. Eric Clapton 2. Duane Allman 3. Jimi Hendrix 4. Carlos Santana 5. Stevie Ray Vaughan
1. Seriously, #1? I respect him very much, but you're overdoing it. 2. Nah 3. NAH. Jimi hendrix was considered good 40 years ago, get with the times brother 4. This is proof you do not know about music, good but #4 not even in his dreams 5. Top 20 perhaps, not top 5.
Technically and musically gifted guitarists: Jason Becker, Jeff Loomis, John Petrucci, Paul Gilbert, Buckethead, Satch (to the idiot who said he didn't deserve to be in the top 100, go learn theory), Yngwie Malmsteen (even though he's a prick), Paco de Lucia (classical) and Al di Meola.
Learn the definition of 'opinion' and the definition of 'fact' then come back. Quit flaming.
And my top 5 was my personal opinion, purely based on technical skill - and Satch would definitely be in the top 100 for creativity. But not technical skill.
This is proof you do not know about music
Once again, learn the difference between fact and opinion. Quite frankly, you pissed me off. Go read the f**king rules of the forum, learn the difference between fact and opinion, and then come back here. You basically just flamed me based on your opinion - it is not fact that you were basing any of your post on. Therefore, you fail. Epically.
WoW, charlie you have no taste in good guitar music.. seriously??? remember we are talking about 00's (i like to call them the double o's)
The Derek trucks band is still putting out albums, and will continue to put out albums for a while. and what do you mean I have no taste in good guitar? You can't beat that slide guitar.
