No Jeff Beck, Clapton, Geordie, Adam Jones, Steve Morse, Jerry Cantrell,
Dimebag, Pepper Keenan, Zac Wilde, Satch, Vai, Zappa, Mustaine...

In all honesty I think heavy players rule in general and most of the best
players are from heavy bands...Gilmour and some others being the
exception.

This guy has some weird obsession with contemporary shitpop
bands...doesn't know his ass from his elbow in terms of players. Glad we
all agree on that.

PS: I can see Slash in a top 10, top 2 is a bit much maybe but I can live
with it in terms of personal preference, can easily understand anyone
liking him more than any other guitarist.
