Favourite rock 'n' roll guitarist?

Who is your favourite rock 'n' roll guitarist? Yes I know I left out quite a few contenders... but there are only 10 poll options and I tried to include guitarists from different genres within rock 'n' roll. My vote goes to Gilmour..

 

Jimmy Page, hands down. the god of improv.

 

Scotty Moore

 

You put two of my all time favorites, Yngwie and Satch, but I had to go with Satch because I couldn't choose more than one. I have so many favorites though, as it is.

 

Jimmy Page and Keith Richards

 

Do we really need a new thread on this every 3 days.

 

dude i know u left out some good ones, how the fuck did u forget duane allman?? he's alot better than most of the those up there. but my vote goes to page, simply because he is god

 

On that list - Jimmy Page is the best 'rock guitarist'


Garcia is the best overall though

no man has ever been so proficient at so many genres as that man

 

i picked garcia. you missed alot of the best on that list though.

 

From your list I picked the greatest guitarist of all time...
Joe "Satch" Satriani

 

I have to go with Page and Clapton. Gods.

 

Hendrix by far. Listing to him right now .

 

For me it's Mick Taylor, the most underrated and forgotten guitar god in rock. Just listen to Can't You Hear Me Knockin'?, Sway, Winter or Time Waits For No One. The man definetly deserves to at least be on the list.

 

My favorite is left out of the poll and has not been mentioned here yet. Without a doubt, Ritchie Blackmore. I learned a lot from his playing and tried to emulate him somewhat when I was playing in my band, Stargazer(yup, an old Rainbow song). One other who I consider a close second, would be Roy Buchanan.

 

wow that one's a doozie, I'd have to say either Bob Dylan or Keith Richards. Fred"Sonic"Smith from MC5 is pretty close to my favourite too.

 

Jimmy Page gets my vote

 

Jimmy Page was my pick...


But Clapton and Hendrix rate high on my 'favorites' list as well

 

Pete Townshend!

 

In the absence of Frank Zappa ,I voted Jimmy Page.

 

Hey I'm listening to Rainbow Rising right now! Yeah Blackmore rocks.




But he doesn't beat Page.
