TOM MORELLO!!!

Kirk Hammett
Michael Angelo Batio
Steve Vai
Joe Satriani
Jimi Hendrix
Gustavo Guerra

Steve Ouimette

1. Steve Lukather (Toto and Studio musician)
1. Michael Landau (tied for first)
3. Dave Williams
4. Eddie Van Halen
5. Tom Shultz (Boston)
6. George Lynch (Dokken)
7. Joseph Patrick Hougnon (became a defense attorney)
8. Dann Huff (Michael W. Smith, Giant)
9. Paul Jackson Jr.
10. Carlos Rios
10.5 O.k. I am defintely guilty of forgetting Randy Rhodes.
11. Neal Schon (Journey - I probably mispelled his last name)
12. Gary Richrath (Reo Speedwagon)
13. Michael Thompson
14. Steve Stevens (Billy Idol)
15. Tim Pierce

Vai and Santriani could make my list eventually.Ted Nugent
would also be on my top 30. I also like Rick Springfield and Prince
and of course Jimi Hendrix but perhaps I should make a new list
for Artists who play guitar. Jake E. Lee should be there. There
is Hugh Burns also. And don't forget John Willaims and Christopher
Parkinton.

I don't know why I thought I could limit this to just 12.

Remember - taste over talent

Joe Satriani these past few months. Always liked him but until seeing him with Sammy Hagar I've begun to appreciate this guy more. Go see Chickenfoot if you can. Great rock band with alot going on with the talents of Van Halen's bassist,Red Hot Chili Pepper's drummer.Hey,they make you feel good. Satriani needed to get out there more.

Personally I think Eric Clapton and Mark Knofler are the best modern rock n roll guitarists.

I wrote a poem about my guitar its called my blue guitar. Here it is:

Oh guitar of mine looking at me, we'll be together again sailing the sea.

I got you down now to a lovely tee.

Throughout the ages there has never been, a more perfect instrument, I knew you when.

My guitar is love songs and blues & a rock n roll tune.

After a while I will get to croon, a little song I wrote.

I know it now by heart note for note.

Money couldn't buy my blue guitar.
