The Best Guitarist Ever

(Best meaning, who SOUNDS the best) I was just curious of the tastes here at Kong. If you’re having trouble thinking of one there is a considerable list here:

I vote Jimi Hendrix

Well, All i know is it’s not me.

That list is crap. They didn’t pick the best. Just the most well known.

I can’t believe the excluded Zach Wylde and Darrell “Dimebag” Abbot. Also how Richy Blackmore, Randy Rhodes and Tony Iomi were placed near the bottom WTF!? BTW Keith Richards and Kurt Kobain do not belong at the top of that list.

Brian May or Frank Zappa.

although out of currently-active artists I’d say either Jack White or Josh Homme.

Kurt Kobain might have been a legend, but he is not one of the greatest guitarists ever.

24 The Edge of U2

bahahaha

edge, wtf?

I dont think some of the guitarists from modern rock bands should have been on there.

No Peter Frampton…... That list is a worthless pile of crap.

what the hell, no Vinnie Vincent? I agree, this is a crap list.

i vote slash xD

I just posted that list because it had lots of the names, not that it was accurate, I think it was pretty crappy too.

Have you seen Bill Bailey’s stand-up thing with the “effects malfunction at a U2 gig” bit?

Have you seen Bill Bailey’s stand-up thing with the “effects malfunction at a U2 gig” bit?

YES

Freaking awesome!

i vote slash.

Slash is the best and Eddie Van Halen is second.

And The Edge is third… :D

I vote Slash as well.

Slash is over-rated. No way he could hold his own against someone like Santana, Steve Vai or someone who actualy lives here in my hometown Rusty Cooley. Rusty is probably one of the best shred guitarists around. He has been voted in as worlds 7th fastest guitarist and I use one of his picks when I feel like shreding. This guy is amazing, he teaches a few of my friends and they melt my face whenever they touch a guitar.

Id say george harrison is amazing but I think that Daron Malakian is a great guitarist too

Don’t trust the Rolling Stones magazine; they’re a crock of bull. Anyway, for the best guitarists, I’d go David Gilmour, Jimmy Page, Jimmy Hendrix, Eric Clapton

Hendrix. Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Slash is the best ppl! he own you guys \o/

Ugghhh…. there is no talking to you people…

why?

well now i’m thinking in my vote and i noted that people just vote in slash because: he was in Guns N’ Roses or just because they just know him 0.o

now i remembered some nice guitarists: Santana, Flea [wait a second flea isn’t a guitarist 0.o]
