Favourite Guitarists


This discussion was inspired by the recent article about our 3 favourite female singers.

Because it was impossible for me to pick just three female vocalists ( I love women singers), I will not put a limit as to how many you wish to vote for. I limited myself to a dozen. However, if you list more that 50 I will seriously question your decision making skills.

In no particular order, except for Rory at number one.

1. Rory Gallagher

2. Peter Green

3. Roy Buchanan

4. Joe Bonamassa

5. David Gimour

6. Slash

7. Johnny Winter

8. Duane Allman

9. Stevie Ray Vaughn

10. Mark Knopfler

11. Glen Campbell

12. Guthrie Govan

My,my,my no one mentions Carlos Santana,or Peter Townsend maybe not the best there ever was but to listen to on a great system.

I am mostly a classical guitar listener. 

Alex Degrassi

Will Ackerman

Leo Kottke

But the craziest guitarist I have ever heard is Joe Satriani playing Surfing with the Aliens...!

Right on. Who else can take a rh guitar, flip it, and get phenomenal sounds from it playing leftie? His style may not suit suit everyone but - that’s talent.

Here’s a gem for streamers - Raimundo Almador’s version of Jimi’s Little Wing. Give it some volume.
