who do you think was the best rock and roll guitarist of all time?

(this might not pertain exclusively to discussing Led, but since Zep is one the most classic of classic rock bands, i thought this guild wouldn't be complete without a thread like this)

i have a little chart i made up for such occasion, and i would be pleased if you followed suit. (if you want)

Jimmy Page=Jimi Hendrix=David Gilmour= Eric Clapton> Carlos Santana> Eddie Van Halen> Zakk Wylde or someone generic like that > worser> worser> etc

slash? i'd have to disagree with you there :\

angus young, too. much better guitarists in the history of things

hendrix, though, he ranks up there as oneof the best.

i would have to say that Page is definately one of the greats as well as hendrix but steve vai is also incredible. ive seen him solo and the passion practically drips off him and his guitar. Joe Satriani is amazing as well

try to have a little variety, there is no one guitarist that is the greatest, there are guitarists that are amazing in their category of music like Paul Gilbert is an amazing shredder while as yngwie malmsteen is really good at blues solo's and etc.

Jeff Beck | Eric Clapton | George Harrison (great sitarist too!) | Jimi Hendrix | Jimmy Page | Pete Townshend | Stevie Ray Vaughn | Joe Walsh

I'm most likely forgetting some people sweatdrop

They are all good at their own style of guitar, why choose one who rules over all??

I'd say Page is second to Hendrix. My top three would look something like this...
1. Jimi Hendrix
2. Jimmy Page
3. Tony Iommi

I dont get why people say Hendrix is best, i would like an explination, cause i just dont see it.

Actually, I'd have to say that Andres Segovia is "the greatest guitarist in the history of ever". 3nodding

well its all a matter of opinion isnt it? i mean i love jimi and page and personally i dont like picking favourite. i mean ya jimmy plays with soul but Jimi PLAYS WITH SOUL. every inch of his body moves with the guitar as if they are one and its just the raw passion. i swear you could almost feel a kinda of heat coming off of hendrix even when you watch him solo on tv. either way they are both great guitarists and its not really required that you agree. but you cant argue with someone

I understand that everyone has their opinion, but i mean, Jimmy pretty much lived for his guitar. He was in another world while he played, you could tell. Plus i think his music is better then Jimi's. I just dont understand the fact that everyone makes a huge deal out of Hendrix cause "He could make his guitar talk".
