    Wes Montgomery, while not a rock player, was incredibly influential to players in multiple genres.

    Yup, he's crazy...


    like a fox. The dude may be coming in a little too hard and crazy but 90% of everything he says is correct.

    Sort of like Toof. But way smarter.

    That's what Duane Allman said about Dickie Betts. Let that marinate.

    I have only seen him mentioned once in this thread so I figure I had to post. David Gilmour might not be the best guitar shredder of all time, but he gets a lot of respect from me for his ability to make a guitar sound mournful.






    It wont let me timestamp the video, if you don't like Pink Floyd skip to about 6 minutes in.

    Tons of great guitar players have existed, and all of them play some version of the blues. Ergo, Robert Johnson is the greatest and will always be. Jimi is a close second. They really set the pace! I'm a huge fan of all the ones mentioned here..in particular, Jimmy Page.
    At least I'm housebroken.

    People don't know about Robert Johnson. Sold his soul to the Devil for his guitar skills.

    One of my favorite quotes is "if you ask 100 people who is the better guitarist Eric Clapton or Lindsey Buckingham 87 of them will get it wrong."
