what would qualify a guitarist to be on the list, his technique? i bet there are many unknown guys that can play faster and cleaner than most of the shredders but they will never get a record deal, you know that image counts today.
So i guess that creativity is what counts the most.
I would say that Vai and Hendrix are among the best players
not because of their techniques but because of their musical skills.
