From VoteNumber1.com


I won't disagree with #2 but I'll bet #1 gets a few music lovers wound up.



Millions of votes for 4 months from over 40 countries!

wow! Not how I would write that list, but - hey, they are all great players.....

I couldn't believe SRV and Clapton had been eliminated.

Speakinig of eliminations, this list smells like doo-doo. Raiduhs

That's why I made it a spinoff,just goes to prove that this stuff is all subjective and that everyone has their own opinons....no matter how wrong they may be :D


btw did you check out the Hoey video of Hocus Pocus in the other thread?

i know it's not a popular pick, but this is also not a popularity contest. lukather is one hell of a guitarist, even though he played in Toto

BS. I think this is biased somehow.

If this guy had a play off with Zakk Wylde his guitar strings would pop, and his hair would cath on fire.

I see nothing more than a speed player in this guy, and in that case I don't think he's anywhere near Monty Montgomery.

Angus Young? I guess I missed his sidework, because there is no way he made this list from his 3 chord songs and jr. high solo's he played with ACDC.

I nevr understood the respsect for him. I guess it was all the great songs. There wasn't much to the axe play.

Richie Sambora in 5th place is good. I don't know if anyone else in here has had the chance to hear him live but 20 years ago I took a car load of teeny-boppers to a BonJovi concert and I was really surprised at how good of a guitar player he was.

He went into a solo portion of the concert and I thought then he was about as good of a guitar player as I had heard at that point and I had heard Malmsteen and Angus Young in the same concert that year at Kemper when Malmsteen was opening for ACDC.

Yep. That was pretty bad ass!

:rolleyes: i realize this is all opinion and subjective, but jesus.

That list is full of FAIL!!!

Eric Clapton is Eliminated???

Steve Lukather is #1? He is better the Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughn???

I want some of whatever they are smoking.

I'm tell'n ya that the dude could jam on the guitar. I was thinking at the time that "This guy is way to good to be stuck with BONJOVI".

The dude is good and if you've never had the chance to listen to him live it would be hard to judge IMO.

IMO he is a top 10 guitar player.

Of course I also think Steve Vai should be on that list. :shrug:

To be a top 10 guitar player, you would have changed the way the instrument is played, IMO. I really don't think Richie Sambora did that or even inspired anyone to pick up a guitar in the first place.
