Title: Re: your favorite guitarists Post by: Jack on December 28, 2009, 08:39:01 AM I really like Michael Schenker, as well as Vito Bratta from White Lion. Both have an awesome mix of melody and technical wizardry. Troy Stetina can really put together a mind blowing solo as well.
Title: Re: your favorite guitarists Post by: Time_Signature on December 28, 2009, 11:39:38 AM Here are some of my favorite guitarists (in no particular order):
Adrian Smith/Dave Murray/Jannick Gers Angus Young Ritchie Blackmore Chuck Schuldiner Tom Morello Dimebag Darrell Glen Tipton/K.K. Downing Ian Crichton Alex Lifeson Marty Friedman/Dave Mustaine Tony Iommi Steve Howe Jim Matheos/Frank Aresti My dad And a whole bunch more ;-) Title: Re: your favorite guitarists Post by: voltron on December 28, 2009, 02:31:14 PM Bill Steer / Michael Amott (Carcass)
John Lee Hooker Michael Gira (Swans / Angels Of Light) Zakk Wylde (specifically for the No More Tears solo) Dave Murray / Adrian Smith (Maiden) Justin Broadrick (Godflesh / Jesu) Rudolph Schenker / Mathias Jabs (sp?) (Scorpions) Steve Clark / Pete Willis / Phil Collin (Def Leppard - early stuff) Brian Robertson / Scott Gorham (Thin Lizzy) Michael Denner / Andy LaRoque (King Diamond - esp. the Abigail album) Geordie Walker (Killing Joke) Glen Tipton / KK Downing (Judas Priest) Wes Montgomery Wolf Hoffman (Accept) Wino (The Obsessed) David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) Alex Lifeson (Rush) The Edge (U2 - only their early stuff, they suck now) Andy Summers - (The Police) Really, too many to mention. I'm sure I've forgotten some incredible players. Title: Re: your favorite guitarists Post by: Time_Signature on December 28, 2009, 03:24:20 PM Bill Steer / Michael Amott (Carcass) ... Steve Clark / Pete Willis / Phil Collin (Def Leppard - early stuff) Brian Robertson / Scott Gorham (Thin Lizzy) Michael Denner / Andy LaRoque (King Diamond - esp. the Abigail album) ... Thanks for mentioning these guys :-) They're among my favorites, too. That is, I really like Phil Collin's solos although I don't listen to Def Leppard that often. Title: Re: your favorite guitarists Post by: voltron on December 28, 2009, 05:00:56 PM I forgot to mention Gregor Mackintosh (Paradise Lost). Big influence on my own playing. He's not the most technical guitarist out there, but he has a great tone and he's got a real knack for coming up with really simple, melodic lines and solos that tug on the heartstrings. Also, there's nothing like Tommy Victor in his prime (say, Force Fed up to Rude Awakening) - easily one of the most underrated, killer rhythm guitarists around.
