we really don't talk about many female guitarists on this site, i was just curious who do is good and are they worthy to be listed with the greats


my favorte is Nancy Wilson (especially for Barracuda)

Jennifer Batten is the only one that comes to mind.

Liona Boyd- An amazing classical guitar player.

Liona Boyd - #1, no question. How many guitarists, in any genre, get Eric Clapton to sign on as a sideman for an album?

While certainly not amazing classical guitarists, I think both Nina Gordon and Louis Post for Veruca Salt are good as well as the guitarist from Seven Year Bitch.

A couple spring to my mind who stand out well and truly, Bonnie Raitte and Kristen Hersh. Chrisie Hynde aint bad.

I think the band is called Jl9 or somthing, anyway the bass player is a woman and man is she tasty (not in the guitar sense but the bed sense)

Courtny love can't play and is not all that tasty but the slutty look is quite sassy, hell any Hole will do at times.

I've never really heard that much about female guitarists.

As Raskolnikov mentioned, there was Veruca Salt, but I don't remember anything special about their playing. They sure did look good on stage though.
