Alex Skolnick - Testament isn't well known and therefore a great guitarist is left out.
He's not only a metal guitarist, he's been dabbling in the jazz gig lately. Way more talented than Kurt Cobain and many others on the list. |

This list is completely goofy - seems to be good for their business though. Wonder why the great Robert Johnson dropped from the top ten down to #71 since the last RS top 100 a few years ago.
Fact is there are ten guys in my hometown who play much better guitar than a lot of these names. |

What about the drummer from Rush? He played a mean guitar.

No, not even close. Can't complain about Jimmy at #1 but page at #3.
someone was really high when they made this list. |

no Joe Bonamassa?
no Joe Satriani? Those 2 alone aren't on the list and should make top 10 SRV at #12 ? There's a contender for #1 with Bonamassa |

That's why I rather trust Guitar World's list than this shit. SRV should be in the top 5.

Leslie West is kinda high on the list... and why is CC Deville not on the list?
Cobain shouldn't even be on the list... and they have him higher than Joe Perry. Rolling Stone = Dog Urine

There were a lot of "flash in the pan" guys in the 80's who were more impressive, like Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme. Way better than a lot on this list.

First in with Nebraska native Michael Lee Firkins. Back in the 80's I got to meet him a few times when we used to hang out at the real Russo's Music in Papillion. Nice guy and one helluva guitar player.

The absence of the 4 most influential guitar instrumentalists of our time renders this list null and void. Vai, Satriani, Eric Johnson and Buckethead should not only be on this list, but all would be in my top 20.

Robert Johnson not in the top 10? That's a big strike against to the validity of this list

My 16 year old drummer son's head would explode if that happens. Bonham, Peart, and Alan White are his favorites. Two of whom could easily be left off a list like this.

These lists are always funny.
Everyone has their own opinion and gets all butt hurt about their heroes being ranked below hacks like Kurt Cobain. I can't believe a guy like Steve Vai or Joe Satriani isn't on the list, yet The Edge is. Blech. To each his own, I guess. |
