condemned2bfree Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Band wise its a tie for me. In terms of which country has produced the most guitar gods its not even close in my eyes. USA blows away the uk in terms of innovation imo. Chuck berry Hendrix ( i know he became famous in england) Eddie van halen Steve vai Joe Satriani Tosin abasi Buckethead Bo diddley Bb king Etc etc We can add - Les Paul - Chet Atkins - Stevie Ray - Roy Buchanan - Scotty Moore Jimmy pageEric ClaptonJeff beckRory GallagherGary MoorePete TownshendRichie BlackmoreDave gilmourSteve howe I'm sure both sides could go on and on and on and on...... You could add legato master Allan Holdsworth, and Brian May. Edited March 11, 2017 by condemned2bfree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedRush Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 The UK wins for 1965-1974, and the US wins for any other time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAccountant Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Voted for both since their are groups I like from both sides of the pond. That being said, if that option had not been available, I would have voted for England. Their are way to many groups from England I really like (e. g. The Who, Def Leppard, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden) and only a few US groups that approach a similar level of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 As usual, people are conflating England with the whole of the UK....... The sooner we are independent of it the better imo, then you can refer to it as the UK to your hearts content I included Scottish bands on my list. I agree with you though, England seems to be the best all and end all. As a south African born with Dutch, French, afghan and Scottish heritage...I remain neutral haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
