Members B.Renegades Posted March 14, 2010 Members Share Posted March 14, 2010 Me - Best guitar player in my bedroom. Look, you can't just say that someone is "awesome blues/metal style" you gotta back it up :/ just my $00.02. Also, by King, you mean Kerry King? From Slayer? I hate that guy. I'm 15 and I could shred circles around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members PinkSabbath Posted March 14, 2010 Members Share Posted March 14, 2010 I agree with Mick Mars - that dude wrote some killer tracks and his band was a total slut-magnet. MEGA respect for that alone Agree with Hanneman, too - he wrote pretty much all of their best material. One of the best riff writers ever Don't know any of the other guys, but I'm gonna throw a name in that will get flamed anyway - Tom Delonge. If people can dig the minimalist style of Jack White, and can swallow pop-trash like Lady Gaga, you have to be able to give that guy some credit. He wrote "Dammit", "What's My Age Again", "All The Small Things" and "I Miss You" which were all massively successful singles and the album "Enema of the State" is packed with great riffs and songs. Not to mention a sig Fender AND Gibson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEGA respect for that alone Actually Nikki claims he wrote all of the material and would show Mick how to play it. That is what I gathered from Heroin Diaries. Who knows, books are made to make money as are albums. That being said, I love Mick's playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sheik_Yerbouti Posted March 14, 2010 Members Share Posted March 14, 2010 How the hell has Ty Tabor not yet been mentioned?! Andy Timmons used to head the list, but he's finally getting up to the level of recognition he deserves, so... A HUGE +1 to Criss Oliva, Mick Mars, John Sykes, Mike Campbell and John Christ. Andy Wood (everywhere except HCAF, anyway! ) Steffen Schackinger Jimmy Herring Dweezil Zappa Tommy Emmanuel Eric Peterson Chris DeGarmo Mike Einziger I'm sure I'll think of 20 more in the next 5 minutes...
