JIMMMY HENDRIX HE IS A LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!

Gee, no one has mentioned Ted Nugent?
I vote for the Motor City Madman!

(whistles louder than my brother used to)

No way can I pick one. There's hundred of talented guitarists out there, but here's my top 10 in no particular order that have influenced me the most...

1. Kirk Hammett (Metallica)
2. Stevie Ray Vaughan
3. Dave Mustaine (MegaDeth)
4. John Petrucci (Dream Theater)
5. Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits)
6. Pete Townshend (The Who)
7. Dan Donegan (Disturbed)
8. Alex Lifeson (Rush)
9. Jimi Hendrix
10. Jerry Cantrell (Alice In Chains)

Ben Savage and Alex Wade, from the band "Whitechapel".

Why am I the only one who seems to like Kerry King?

That's kind of weird. Might not be the best lyricist ever, but dam he can play guitar with the best of them.

The most amazing guitarist ever, is obviously me. Lol no, probably the best living guitarist is that guy from dragonforce.

Kirk Hammett and Slash are highly overrated, Marty Friedman, Joe Satriani, and Chuck Schuldiner are just some of the best.

One slipped my mind, Rocky George from Suicidal Tendencies, he's a very underrated guitarist
