Favourite guitar players

So...What are your all time favourite guitar players? Theres not much else I can say, really.

Mine...Well, theres Synyster Gates from Avenged Sevenfold. He's a very big influence.
Dime, of course. You can't go past Pantera without wondering how he does some of that stuff..
Theres my guitar teacher aswell, Jason McGregor. He really openned my eyes to other styles of music, and most importantly taught me how to play, properly. This guy can play practically anything from any genre. Not to mention write in the vein of many genres.
Wade and Dallas from Alexisonfire. I just love the atmosphere they bring out in their guitar playing. It's worth checking out Dalla's solo projects - www.myspace.com/dallasgreen - great folk playing.
Michael Angelo Batio - I can't play any of his stuff, but damn. He inspires me to play when I don't have all of my motivation to.

Well. Lets see here. I'll post one for now, and then post some more later.

Anders "Blakkheim" Nystrom. No, not for Katatonia, I love them but Blakkheim shines much more in two other bands. Diabolical Masquerade and Bloodbath. In DM he makes some of the most interesting riffs that work to enhance the eerieness of the music, without loosing the power they should have.

In Bloodbath, well. There isn't much to say other than he writes catchy and "br00tal" riffs.

Well......My favorite would have to be Dime, may he rest in peace.

He played the guitar like no others and I have been a huge fan of him for over 10 years, His tragic death was a true loss for the metal genre.

Didn't matter wich band he was in, Pantera or Damageplan didn't make a difference. I could hear that it was Dimebag playing on the guitar.

BLAST YOUR RIFFS IN HELL BROTHER OF METAL, AND I'LL SEE YOU THERE!!!!! \m/

relm takes classes from Quistis - (lv 2)
I'm not too familiar with many guitar players,
but one sticks out in my head.
Yngwie Malmsteen. I think his solos are
amazing...

Favourite song is "Far Beyond The Sun".
He also does "flight of the bumblebee" stylized.

My favourite guitar players are Slash and George Harrison. Slash is such an awesome guitarist and was amazing live. I didn't see Guns n' Roses live myself but I have couple of their concerts on DVD and he was amazing on stage. George Harrison might not have been the best guitarist ever but I thought he was very talented and was highly underrated as well. Buckethead is an excellent guitarist in my opinion, he has to be one of my all time favourites. He sounds awesome live.

Right now, Buckethead, and Yngwie Malmsteen are my favorites. But then again, I'm a sucker for Kerry King, Herman Li, and Collin Meloy. Though Collin's a terrible guitar player, he rules. And how can you hate a whiny British guy?

Not in any order.
Joe Satriani - I'm a huge fan of his style and his constant deliverance of solo's album after frickin album. With Surfing With the Alien still and always being my favourite of them all. A great guitarist.
Jimi Hendrix - The god of all that is guitar. Truely worthy of that name and will always be a legend. This guys guitaring has always been awesome to me and will remain even when he raises back from the dead and wails his guitar to the masses once more. [oh, he will!!]
Jeff Loomis - The lead guitar for Nevermore, this guy can spew out solo after ****ing solo and make them all sound as awesome as the first, and better! combined with the rest of the band, it puts a new meaning to word awesome.
Micheal Angelo Batio - The greats guitarist when it comes to fast playing, becuase this guy makes it sound so awesome! Watch any of his vidoes where he's showing off, you'll soon sink down to your place in the guitaring world. Becuase this guy knows what he's doing.

I have a fair amount of people I like but I'll just list off a couple. Pete Townshend I think is a wonderful guitarist. He wasn't very good at soloing when he was in The Who, but on his solo albums he showed off his true skill. He mainly did chord progressions, but they sounded wonderful. He just has a unique style that I like. it's set like rythem, but it doesn't blend with the song, it still sounds like a lead, because of how he plays. It's hard to describe. Pete is one of my faves though.

My other guitarist that I like alot is Kirk Hammet of Metallica. I just like the way he solos. His ability to play fast, but not have to if he doesn't feel like it makes him great. He can play fast, but also he lets the notes be heard and has the abaility to get the sound that he wants out of what he plays. He's a great guitarist. Those are 2 of the guitarist that I like alot.
