This is in no particular order :)

Stevie Ray Vaughan -yeah he's simple but he rocks!

Slash - he can transmit his emotions to his guitar better than anyone.

Yngwie Malmsteen -most of his licks maybe monotonous but the way he excutes them is outstanding.

Paul Gilbert -fast and furious

Michael Angelo Batio -just when we thought Yngwie is fast

Dudes, not one of you mentioned John Mclaughlin. He is the super being of guitar poweress. He's basically John Coltrane on guitar. He's able to pave his own way, never look back, and he can sit down with almost any other living virtuouso and school them.

When you die and you're at the gates of heaven. John;s going to be there judging whether you've been a good guitarist or a bad guitarist ;)

You have to check him out for sure. From his work with Miles Davis, Mahavishnu Orchestra, to the present.

Here's some video's. Check out "The Translators" Aspan, "Duets" Chiquito with Paco especially, "Mahavishnu Orchestra", and "Various" My Foolish Heart especially. He plays in many different situations/genres, seemlessly.


Here you go :)

Malmsteen Forever. He Is The Best Of The Best. Satriani Sucks.
Also Hummet Sucks.
Vai Is Very Good. But Jason Becker Is Very Very Good. Becker Is The Best After The Great Yngwie Malmsteen... :)

Ah yes i smell it too. maybe someone should warn him that saying " **insert name**...sucks" wont be taken lightly by some of the people who frequent this site, and is sure to result in a burn.

not that at all, think what you want about any guitarist...evryone has an opinion, but that sort of opinion is a crap opinion. hehe, no no, I just dont think that anyone could honestly say either of those guitarists suck as they are clearly better than the vast majority of guitarists...I was serious, it really was ignorance
