Top 100 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time Part 1 (100-51) (Video Samples)

[xMetalayerx]

3:22 WTF!? That's just complete nonsense! >.>

[arnyplamyaburs15]

hahaha... Dick Dale

[ManticoreFire]

@rzvb100 Vai has a familiar sound; lots of great guitarists have that same kind of fast arpeggio-based virtuosity. Edge's sound is completely one of a kind. Nothing sounds quite like it. And, true, he's not the virtuoso that Vai is, but he is a more memorable songwritter. He's high for the same reason George Harrison and Keith Richards is.

[guitarsbeforegirls]

slash at 72?!?! What the hell?!?

[xxrockon83]

Steve Vai only at #60??? He's a musical genius and composer for crying out loud..

[Thegodfather1233]

3:22 if you call that guitar playing? that really really sucks dude

[OutsiderDrummer]

GREAT MOVIE VERY THANKS !

[MrGibsonBlack]

Angus Young is not the 74 he is for me the number 1 of World

[Robholmesmusic]

I respect your opinion obviously, but Gary Moore two above Jack White? That's very odd in my eyes, nice video anyway.

[olapeido]

Mate can you tell whats dave davies playing?

[AirLesPaul23]

[ralfitalia]

what is zakk wilde playing?



[AirLesPaul23]

@ralfitalia Farewell Ballad

[Cartsius]

JACK WHITE HIGHER THAN ADRIAN LEGG?! did you even WATCH the clip for him!

[adaniell1234]

No way Joe Perry is 90. I get this is your opinion though. Otherwise liked seeing the rating. Joe Perry is way underrated though.

[80007144]

whoa..why is joe fuckin perry at # 90 :0

[adaniell1234]

@80007144 Agree 100% with you. Joe Perry should be rated way higher. He is so underrated on lists and he is so talented.

[Frobe1357]

WTF if phil keaggy, gary moore, jonny greenwood below johnny ramone? and jan akkerman should be no. 1.

[Tbraves111]

where's andy timmons?

[wacnac1]

Fu

[wacnac1]

zakk wylde and tom morrello should be in the top 10

[slapmaster691]

what song is tom morello playing

[AirLesPaul23]

@slapmaster691 Audioslave - Like A Stone

[rockonmyfriends06129]

Slash has to be in the top 10 moron xD

[rockonmyfriends06129]

zack wylde 94 xD are you kidding me

[OoompaaLooompaa]

[AirLesPaul23]

@OoompaaLooompaa It's an E-Bow demonstration:

/watch?v=NIWMrK67_bk

[OoompaaLooompaa]

@AirLesPaul23 wehoo! thank you

[1m2a3t4t5]

Many mediocore players here: Alvin Lee Andrew Latimer Zakk Wylde Steve Morse Dave Davies Phil Kaegy Dimebag Doushnozzle Gary Moore Johnny Ramone Andy Summers, dude after him and So on...

[1m2a3t4t5]

Pete Townsend #58, Ramone shouldn't even be included

[1m2a3t4t5]

@TheNokie65

Its hard to read what you wrote and understand what you are saying somewhat. But I agree FUCK rolling stones magizine, so many posers look off their shitty, inaccurate lists as if they are factual and actually thought out. Rolling stones lists are garbage!

[rzvb100]

I like the idea that you put a list together with video clips, that was cool. I realize that it's a matter of opinion for the most part...but on what planet is "The Edge" better than Steve Vai??? I can't think of any measurable metric (other than most female fans in the 35-45 demographic) where this would be true.

[16inyourplaybooks]

Slash 72!?! Angus Young 74!?!?

[fingerboy18]

Guthrie Govan.

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

John Petrucci needs to be higher so does steve vai and I don't know who that guy was before petrucci but he should be higher too

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

a lot of these guitar players are actually quite bad, how did they become legends? If the next vid has Hendrix as number I will be so fucking pissed

[1m2a3t4t5]

@MartyFriedmanRulez66

Hendrix is a bit overrated, I agree.

[Virmax5701]

RIP Gary

[Virmax5701]

steve morse only 92 ???? WTF???????

[alskii7]

Nice montage! Very welcome in a world where speed and pyrotechnics are valued more than style and substance.

[ginge210873]

Gary moore is a legend .How come only 84?!?!?!?

[zacOtack96]

i respect the decision for slash as he is totally overatted

[Henkie010Penkie]

I don't agree with some guitarist's positions in this list, but I respect the opininion! Instead of complaining which guitarists should be in this list, I made my own vid. Check it out plz -->

[Nicholasthegooddevil]

Angus Young should definitelly be higher

[MetalDude1415]

Wylde at 94?!?

[1998Mrmarios]

92 steve morse are you stupid?

[TorsiSimon]

finally i see a video that doesn't have Slash in the Top 10!!! I mean, that dude is so overrated. all my friends criticize me because he is in 19th in my list. Because of the fact that he is so overrated some of the legendary guitarists are underrated

I so hate him!!

[rockonmyfriends06129]

@TorsiSimon It's not slash's fault he is so good , and i know slash got to much media and shit, but that's not his fault he is just really good and he is so popular because of the fans and gnr

[TorsiSimon]

@rockonmyfriends06129 I´m sorry, that was my 15-year-old brother who wrote that and he may have used some strong language but I completely agree with him. He has had to much credit, more than he deserved and despite he makes some beautiful solos, truely amazing solos, he is not technically evolved, he just captivates people's ears because the sound he makes is nice but as I said, technically he, I'm sorry, sucks.

[iboughtit]

Dime at 86? IDK dude, some of these guys can really jam, but I mean it's dime man.

[mydkispwnzer]

wtf?! Slash should be #1!!!

[TorsiSimon]

@mydkispwnzer slash is ok in 72th position

[afonsiny1]

Steve Vai should be at least top 10

[lolzy44]

i understand that your rating the guitarist on more than their playing but this list still blows

[gunnut30304]

This guys heads up his ass.

[professionaltroller1]

johnny greenwood very need to calm down

[theshifty04]

Kirk Hammett should be in at least in the top 10

[nikolaishrederguy]

and wat the hell is the edge doing before john petrucci

[YellowFaceDesigns]

PRINCE OVER DIMEBAG?!?!?!?!? 

[mrmike2013]

I'm not going to argue with your opinion. But it sucks

[jevimetal13]

No wait, Steve Vai at 60? Goodbye

[jevimetal13]

Gary Moore at only 84????????? I can't take you seriously

[DoPe279]

Slash At 72 Are you serious ??

[nikolaishrederguy]

zakk wylde at number 94? wtf lmao

[jojello69]

john petrucci 52? i don't think so pal

[LibraHorse1]

What song is Johnny Greenwood playing?

[AirLesPaul23]

@LibraHorse1 Radiohead - Go To Sleep

[MrJazzman909]

this is one of the better lists i have seen

[marelbijveld]

wtf? zack wylde number 94 and jack white on 88. thats a joke

[guitarsoulbrotha]

Though I sometimes disagree with the order, that's just my personal opinion, I really respect this list for the range of guitarists you have on here, and I respect you as a music lover, and more then likely a musician yourself :)

[defmonkey57]

fuck yes! Adrian Legg!

[Mikael45831]

Dimebag, Randy Rhoads, Zakk Wylde.... Top 3!!

[fighter1824]

how the hell is angus so low

[JrCrown]

[brhs012]

This is a whacked out list! Dimebag Darrell and Kirk hammett not even in the top 50?

[ThePoggle9]

Thank you for putting akex lifeson on here! oh and john petrucci should be in the top 20 at least

[hk19950329]

@agbdlciddddd

[abottomful]

nice. i respect this list because of who is on here

[TheStress61]

que des bon je vais voir la suite :)

[thetomizzinator]

alex lifeson is sooo underrated, he deserves way higher than 64, but pretty good list so far...

[guitardude920]

gary moore at 84# he should be at least 30 or under

[TheCaseman777]

steve vai at #60. i know this is just an opinion but he should at least be in the top 10

[7franny7]

the edge??? 55 WHAT THE JESUS?

[DoGmAnGuY1758]

@agbdlciddddd you must be high, randy rhoads played those first, and 10000 times better than zakk wylde

[alaid257]

@agbdlciddddd Randy Rhoads dumb ass

[sickassbitch90]

You gotta be shittin me! Kirk Hammet #66 and Jack White 86. How can Hammet be higher than White!

[aijunk2]

@AirLesPaul23

Thanks, man! I'll be sure to download it as soon as possible (if it allows me) say....is Frost wire any good?

[wwwkillsyourmom69]

i hate to dis-agree but pete townshend shouldnt be at #58

[Mickeyholm888]

this list is pretty cool :)

but i have to disagree with steve vai being #60... i mean he is one of the most skilled guitarists out there.

[aijunk2]

Wait, what Radiohead song was that? Man, was that amazing. If you don't know what I'm talking about, i'm talking about Johny Greenwood, shown as #82. What song was that?

!

[SrdjanLimich]

And where are Mason Williams and Tommy Emmanuel in Top 100.

[xAxCxxDxCxRxUxLxExS]

Angus should come b4 slash :P my op, but you dnt see slash getn down on the ground spinning around while playing and not miss a beat! angus also does a good duck walk.

[SkuXxinUP]

i expected angus young, tom morello and slash to at least be in the top 20 but thats my op :)

[tapper137]

ok 73 and 72 completly messed up tom morello in the top 10 slash in the top 3
