I agree on Nugent, but that list is a joke.

No Vai, Paul Gilbert, Buckethead, Shawn Lane, Malmsteen, Joe Satriani, or John Petrucci?

Some greats here, and glad Lou Reed got in on the first page.

Gotta add Rick Nielsen, Johnny Thunders, Mick Ronson. This list could go on for days...

Sorry about that. It shouldn't have taken over the thread. It's just that Buckethead is a sham and his fans can't accept it.

He's probably the least "sham" guitarist possible. Slash is far more of a sham.

I imagine you watching Buckethead YouTube videos on your iPhone X and whining to anyone who isn't sick of you by now that your opinion matters.

Buckethead is just as unoriginal as your little Cupertino Apple people.

... moving on ...!

Well thank you for your opinion. My no was in relation to slash.

But I certainly hit a nerve!

Damn dude I would venture to say Buckethead raped your mother by the hate for him I see in your posts. Did you not get a toy one time at a show when he was handing them out?

Upon further review, it's really silly to say anyone is the greatest guitarist if you're not talking about Eddie Van Halen. I didn't list him as my first choice cause he does seem to be a giant jerk. But not only is he amongst the very very best technical players of all time, he's very original, a talented songwriter, and has a real feel for the instrument

Fun fact:
Alex was the original lead guitarist of that band, and Eddie was the drummer

And furthermore, the most amazing thing, is:

How is Jimmy page still alive?

He looks to be the healthiest of three in this picture. Have any of you ever read the Zepplin biography "hammer of the gods"?

I agree with all those who agree that Hendrix is the GOAT.

However, we'd be remiss not to mention incredibly influential players like Chuck Berry, Tony Iommi, and even Django Reinhardt.
