Favorite guitar player

[YosemiteSam]

One guy I don't think I saw mentioned is Tommy Emmanuel. The guy is unreal.



If you don't know much about him, Youtube his name and spend an hour or more listening. If you're a true guitar enthusiast, you will be glad you did.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Eric Johnson.

 

[Echo9]

Has Zakk Wylde been mentioned yet? He's pretty good.

Others that I didn't see listed (but could have missed)
Angus Young
Jerry Cantrell

And some others on my personal list for my own reasons.
Kenny Hickey
Joey Zampella

Eric Johnson good call
Zakk Wylde can play the hell out of a guitar. also good pick (he is touring with a band called Zakk Sabbath)
Angus probably most underated but my personal favorite

I'm still trying to learn the studio version of that song. Tough, tough, tough song to play. Love that song.

[Roadtrip635]

A lot of my favs have already been mentioned, but I have to add Stanley Jordan. The things he can do with a guitar(s) are memorizing.


The bass player in this vid ain't too shabby either.

 

[Roadtrip635]

One of the greatest that ever played, a true OG, Son House.... that sound, that raw feeling, just can't be equaled
In the words of Son House, The Blues is real, it means something, it ain't about no foolishness



I love this vid, Buddy Guy learning at the feet of the master....

Brad Paisley is pretty awesome.

Met him in Disneyland. His kids and my nephews were in the same "Jedi training" class. Cool guy.

I first saw him play a small concert at a county fair in WV. His skill blew me away.

Yeah that dude is a bonafide bad *** on the guitar (and that's coming from someone who does NOT like country music). Unbelievable talent.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Billy Duffy

 

[Cowpolk]

The music is Beethoven this gal is good

 

[Idgit]

Same with Travis Tritt. Saw him play a riff like Eddie Van Halen.

Theres Ted and Angus but nothing represents Rock and Roll to me better than Keith . He wins by attrition . Has left many in his dust . Keith just continues to carry the Rock and Roll torch. Never forget sitting in the old JFK stadium waiting through George, and Journey all day in the hot sun crowed was smoked . Keith struck one cord from Honky Tonk woman right at dusk and 100k people erupted from dead silence .

That's power!!!
