Overrated:
1)Yngwie: Same stuff over and over, nothing new. Plus, his pompous attitude is annoying.

2)Jack White: The dude writes the sloppiest, crappy sounding riffs and songs, I've heard in a while, and Rolling Stone decides he's one of the top 100 guitarist of ALL TIME!!!

Underrated:

1)Mick (Sh*tknot): In Slipknot, not so good, without Slipknot, very good.

2)Michael Angelo: I don't care how many of you think he's slow and what not. The dude can play the guitar. Left handed as well as right handed. He can play 2 guitars at once. (and for those who aren't familiar with Angelo, it isn't a doubleneck guitar, it's a guitar with 2 necks that connect in the middle, like a V, one is truly left handed, one is truly right handed.) He actually has a quadruple necked guitar (think two double necks, one left handed, one right handed), and plays them at the same time. Enough said.

3)Jason Becker - Great mix of melody with speed. Not the same rehashing over and over again.

4)Lalimacefolle :D - Plain awesomeness.

Just my 2c

Sometimes I hit notes only dogs can hear.
