I never knew Eddie Van Halen was in Van Halen

Brian Setzer ought to feature in the top 10 I think.

What? No Dimebag?

IZ.

Mmm... Gary Marx.
No, seriously, great riffs from him...
(and I tend to dislike guitars...)

Seconded.

These aren't the best but they're my faves for what the hell its worth...

Andreas Kisser (Sepultura), Adam Pearson, Dimebag, Kirk Hammett, Mark Mynett (Kill II This), Dave Wolfenden (RLYL and very briefly for live duty, The m*****n), Gary Marx, Andreas Bruhn, Tony Iommi, Geordie Walker, and probably Buckethead too because even though he looks like a bit of a berk, he absolutely rocks.

You Fools!
the list goes like this:

Dave Gilmour
Pete Townshend
Bernard Butler
Paul Kossoff
Steve Howe
Will Sargent
Eric Clapton but only in the Creams
Steve Hacket but only in the Genesis'sss's
Piggy (he's pan breid but used to be in the Voivods)
John Squire

think before you post

Its all a generational thing innit. I'll be posting on some forum in 20 years saying how Sepultura (Roots and before) were the best metal band ever and there'll be some upstart explaining to me how the new "planet sized alien metal thunder-f*ck super-mega guitarists" are the way forward and all others in the past sucked fluorescent hairy round things.

And while I'm here, Bernard Sumner was cruelly missed off by me earlier.
F*ck those future people, f*ck them up their stupid asses. (quote stealing from a film there.... gives me an idea for a new topic.......)

you have issues, I'd seek professional advice Dude
