I would put Radomir Mihailovic Tocak on the second place. If it was about living guitarists then I would put him on the first. And I think that Billy Bibbons, Angus Young and Tony Iommy deserve 10th, 9th and 8th place more than Hammet, Richards and Santana.

Overall, this is a very good list. I don’t think there will be any definite list since everyones’s taste, just like the variety o guitarists out there, is different. It is difficult to compare geniuses. All these guys are beyond the professional level because they created their signature, their identity, Therefore saying that one is better than the other is like saying yeallow is better than blue because it is more yellow than the blue. Doesn’t make sense.

Anyway, I liked the list!

great job!

I think Joe Walsh and Billy Gibbons would be on my list. Honorable mention to George Lynch and Reb Beach.

I agree, AC/DC should be up there, and so should Neal Schon, Slash, and Simon Townshend. Jeremy, there was a mistake in your comment, it would pe “an impossible question” just a btw.

Every one has mentioned a lot awesome musicians and i agree with everyone on here that there are a lot of Guitarist that are awesome. Some one will always be better than the other especially as technology increases with each era. I like to listen to the ” American Horse” Album by Micki Free which he has Cindy Blackmon on the the Drums, and David Santos on the Bass. On this Cd he redid Jimi Hendrix song “Hey Baby / New Rising Sun” and “Voodoo Chile”. Now I’m not an music expert but this Cd sounds awesome Cranked up coming out of my tower 15″ Cerwin Vegas and my Cerwin Vega Subwoofer! Just saying!!! I grew up listening to Jazz fusion, smooth jazz, funk, R&B, Gospel and Hip Hop. Then I was introduced to Jimi Hendrix and I never heard so much feeling put in to rock/blues music. I new what the difference was from other music, You cant reproduce soul. This Brotha had a soul that is and was not in the the average rock songs that were played on the radio in the 80′s and 90′s. If you are looking or curious about that Micki Free Cd I order mine from Amazon .com. Here is also his new new blues rock song I found on you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBGH9cY4ytQ&feature=g-all-fbc&context=G2dd1158FAAAAAAAAJAA

Enjoy!!!

I think the list is good but the question ” Who is the greatest guitarist of all time ” lets face it is a question that will never be answered. Everyone has there favorite depending on their type of music, hard or soft rock, metal, blues, funk, classic, etc. I think there are a lot of guys who didn’t make the list that should and a couple that made the list that shouldn’t be ranked as high as they are. I grew up on rock and metal ( 80′s metal ) and have always been a huge fan of AC/DC and Angus Young and think he should be in the top 10 ( not saying #1 I completely agree with Hendrix being in that spot ). But as new artist and groups come on the seen it’s just a impossible question to answer cause everyone will always have a reason why their favorite band or guitarist is the best. But I will say to who created the above list good job there are some greats in that list and thanks for taking your time to look all them up with videos and post them for all of us to enjoy.

Your right I am opinionated. I am also passionate. I apologize for my outburst. I think if this had been done in the 70′s & 80′s your results would have been a whole lot different. Yes Page,Hendrix,Clapton,Stevie Ray are in the top ten, but so is Steve Howe. This is not an all time best list. This is a who is most popular at this time list. If youve never heard the phenominal Yes & Asia guitarist listen to him. Especially his acoustic guitar solos. Thanx, Carl.

Hi Carl,

You sound like a really nice guy.. NOT

Please read the first 3 paragraphs of this article before you go using the MORON word.

I don’t know a lot about Steve Howe but Wikipedia states the following:

Rolling Stone ranked him number sixty-nine on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of all Time in 2003

Have a nice day!
