2: David Gilmour
3: George Benson
4: Ritchie Blackmore
5: Syd Barrett

If at first you don't succeed, you are obviously not Chuck Norris.

I'd agree with that on order of talent as well, actually - except I'd put Zakk at the bottom. :p :)

No apologies accepted :mad:

This is YOUR top 5. If you like Greg Howe then you put him down. :)

I'll list the "poll" after this weekend.

While on the subject--

You have listed Howe as one of your top 5 guitarists.

He apparently plays in a way that has influenced and "grabbed" ya. Reason to be Top 5 in my book. What did it for you and why the need to feel you should apologize?

I felt that I need to apologize because Greg Howe brought the list to 6, one more than the requested number.

I guess the number 6 next to it should have given it away :rolleyes:

As you can probrably guess I have not been counting long.

So in that case -- "get thee to a nunnery".

Isn't it weird how "big Will" always had a good "burn" that sounds good even after all these Centuries?

Nothing like the classics man.
