invisibleairwaves Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Since there's a thread about the most overrated guitarists, I think it's time to look on the bright side and mention our favorite guitarists. For me: The Edge-U2 Randy Bachman-The Guess Who, BTO Eddie Van Halen- Van Halen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slaine mac Roth Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Without a doubt, way out in front, is the sublime David Gilmour of Pink Floyd.

Chasartymac Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 For me, Marty Friedman. His heavy stuff is outstanding but his mellow, new age stuff is blinding. He is also one of a few players who can shred with soul. Like.. Jason Becker, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai. edited cos I can't spell Via Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THAT'S why Dave is the best of all time. I read a quote from him in an article once, and he said something like, "I try to make the guitar sing." And that's exactly what he accomplishes, IMO.
