So after my post about looking to buy a new guitar at some point, and my recent 50 Favorite Albums post... how about we talk about our favorite guitarists? Anyone up?

The list is long......I'm kind of an old-school shred fan.

Tony Macalpine
Micheal Lee Firkins
Vinnie Moore..Mind's Eye is a brilliant instrumental album.
Micheal Romeo (Symphony X)
Chuck Loeb
Al Dimeola

That should get the party started......

John Sykes
Ken Tamplin
Chris Degarmo/Michael Wilton (great combo)

Those are the first ones that come to mind.

Good call, I really dig his work as well.  He has a great sound.

John Sykes and Nuno Bettencourt - I thought I was alone in my opinion of those guys.
Most of us come from the 80's, a decade I commonly refer to as the decade of the guitar player. For me, it would be

Ace Frehley
Randy Rhoads
Darrell Abbott
Larry Farkas
Gary Lenaire
Gus G
Dean Wells (severely underrated)

Lots of good choices. I'll agree with:

Jimmy Page
Angus Young
Stevie Ray Vaughan

and add:

Micah Ortega and Sonnie Johnston (Five Iron Frenzy - they may not shred but their playing serves the songs well)
Brian Doidge (several Michael Knott projects but mainly LSU)
Greg Minier (Crucified, Miner, Applehead)
Jeff Bellew (CHATTERbOX, Stavesacre)
Joe Strummer and Mick Jones (Clash)
Brad Paisley

Nuno's riffage on Pornograffitti is absolutely stellar.

I have owned several Washburn guitars over the years and wanted a Nuno signature model badly....until I played one. The body was so tiny it felt like a toy to me....

My favorite is III Sides...   Cupid's Dead is a monster tune. Good lyrical content, too.

III Sides is a good album.  Gets a little mellow for me but definitely has some good music on it.  I give it a spin now and again.  I haven't listened to anything after Punchline.

I also should add Shane Speal and Samantha Fish.  Shane is probably the father of the current cigar box guitar movement and is doing quite a bit to further the craft.  Samantha is a blues artist who does play some cigar box guitar but also wails on a six string.

Dang, I think I might change my name legally if it was anywhere near that bad.  Laughing
