| Steve Clark wouldn't believe you would list him, but I think he was highly underappreciated as well. |

Pffft! He was a kick ass guitarist. Clearly not as technically gifted as some, but the dude knew how to write some killer riffs. I'll take killer riffs and songs over skill any day. |

| I'm agreeing with you. I have just heard that Steve Clark didn't have the highest opinion of his own playing. |

| Uli Jon Roth (especially for his work with the SCORPIONS) Ace Frehley (for his work with KISS in the 70's) George Benson (for just being so amazingly brilliant...period!) Eddie Van Halen (this guy just made "difficult" look so "easy" and influenced all the Metal guys that came after him) Paul Gilbert (my favorite speed-shredder ever...and unlike most of his peers at the virtuoso level, Paul actually is the nicest, down-to-earth, non-egotistical guy you'd ever want to meet) |

| 1. Criss Oliva 2. John Petrucci 3. Slash (during G&R tenure) 4. Adrian Smith (I like all three Maiden guitarists almost equally but my favorite solos are the from Wasted Years and Stranger In A Strange Land-both done by Smith [actually I believe he also wrote both of them as well]) 5. Kirk Hammett (pre-Load)
The list of my favortie guitarists is a mile long but these 5 I'd say are my cream of the crop. Honorable mention: Rocky George for his work on The Art Of Rebellion (contains some of the best guitar solos ever IMO) | |
