    Default Favorite guitarists

    Who are your favorite guitarists? Why I ask? Because I'm in need of knowing some more. I just have an urge to learn about some new ones. These are ones I enjoy.

    Ryan Key (Yellow Card)
    Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin)
    Beillie Joe Armstrong (Greenday)
    Deryck & Dave Baksh (Sum 41)
    Hillel Slovak (Red Hot Chilli Peppers)
    Kurt Cobain (Nirvana)
    Johnny Greenwood & Ed O'Brien (Radiohead)
    Thom Yorke (Radiohead) (I seperated him because I like his music. Though I like Johnny's playing btter, Thom deserves to be seperated. I mean you never know if it's Ed or Johnny playing since sometimes it's one, not the other.)
    Tom DeLonge (Blink 182)
    Daron Malakian (System Of A Down)
    And that dude from Rage Against The Machine

    These are just guitarists I enjoy. Not all are my favorite band though. My top 3 favorite out of those are Kurt, Jimmy, & Daron. So please. Tell me yours. I need to see others materials. Hey, I can learn a thing or two about being a guitarist myself. Getting better every day and all. And I <I>would</I> add Jimmy Hendrix but I only heard 2 songs from him.

    I like your choices. I have to agree those are all great guitarists.

    After hearing some of the guitar from the Velvet Revolver's album, I have to add Slash to the list. Also, I've always enjoyed Joe Perry as well.

    I forgot about Dave Gilmour. Just can't find a Pink Floyd song that doesn't start with a freakin intro.
