Who is your favorite guitar player?

For me my top 5 would have to be


1 Buckethead or Yngwie Malmsteen I really can't decide which.

2. Slash

3Van Halen

4. Kirk Hammett

5 Tony Iomi


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

2. Mark Knopfler
3. Eric Clapton

Why? No particular reason, just guys I grew up with Tongue

EDIT: Oooh, I just have to add Jimi Hendrix, since I like his sound.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

1: Alex lifeson-Rush

3: Slash was good but I hated Guns and Roses. One minute of good guitar ruined by seven minutes of a banshee screeching.
4: Brian May
5: Johnny Marr from the Smiths

Fuck I didn't expect this question to get answers so instantly, pretty pleased about it though. Some good answers too.

I like Frankiej’s list, but I’d probably put Gilmore in above Hubert Sumlin. There are others of course, but I would be remiss if I didn’t include David Gallaher and his cigar box on my personal list of favorites.
