Top20 Guitarists of the 21st centuary Pt 1

[jojello69]

but pantera is a good band, most people do't realize that because they hear the first fvie seconds and think whoever listens to it is emo or goth and it's pretty stupid

[CrazyladyTanya16]

Woot Woot! Synyster Gates! :DD ♥

[BalliinPimpinPlayin]

that asain guitarist from dragonforce obviously should b number 1 nd the guitarist from in flames is pretty good i think he should b part 2

[MoondoggieJ]

GODSMACK

I wonder. on to part two. haha

[edwin20096]

ok first whoever made the post Slipknots guitars sucks,is just wrong because according to what you can do i bet you couldn't get close and their guitars are alot harder than you think,and as everyone says how did Alexi from C.O.B not get on this list? in my opinion he is 1,or 2, because the simple fact that his solos are better than almost anyones,and don't say make your own video cause i'd rather not and just tell you,you left out a couple of people.including

Matt and Corey from Trivium

[JYhatz]

@edwin20096 i agree with the slipknot thing, they are much better musicians as a whole than everyone takes them for....i dont know why there is a general assumption that everything in slipknot and from slipknot sucks....they are very talented musicians.

I agree with you on everything else as well

[CaCtUsJaCk42]

thumbs up if rob flyn should be #1

[tacohead34]

Tom morello deserves a spot on this list

[LibraHorse1]

@tacohead34 Tom Morello first came into prominence in the 90s, so I don't think it would be fair to put him on there.

[n00bTuber87]

what was the song played for the Queens of the Stone Age guitarist?

[yupidoda]

@n00bTuber87 "No one knows" I believe :)

[n00bTuber87]

@yupidoda thanks.

[Babyface6200]

@yupidoda tosin abasi?

[drunkenCss]

well , i think synyster is a great guitarist not for #1 but much higher than soad's guitarist...actually i dont believe there is a thing as best guitarist or 2nd best or 3rd best...tahts pretty much favorites...and bullshit.

and its pretty dumb to say..."Hey he shold be #1" ...u know what i mean...they havent made a tournament for best guitraist to say something like...also there are some exceptions(not specific ppl) but im tired of writing...

[volumemassacre]

Well done for putting the heaven's basement lads in their they deserve it!

[lozi28]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAY to the fact Sid and Jonny are in here. they're so talenteddd. nice one :)

[troya1995]

Avenged sevenfold, My favorite band...Synyster Gates Favorite guitarist. rest in peace James Sullivan!! <33

[CoryConnerJoshINC]

@troya1995 yea dude wtf are they doin at 17?!?!?1 they shood be at leest top 5!!!

[Wolles92]

Matt Tuck is never better than Phil Demmel or Rob Flynn!!!

[dms1015]

Synester #1 by far

[iBangRainbows]

i cant belive you put Syn and zachy at 17!!!!!

they are the best guitar duo's of the 20th and 21th century

[ChristopherIanKing]

Uhhhh.....No.

Syn and Zak are not as talented as you think, there are others out there who top there ass tenfold, for instance, I'd like to thank Yupidoda for placing Pepper Windstein and Pepper Keenan ahead of them, for the simple fact that they dominate in terms of style, writing and pure talent.

Kid, It don't take sweep tap solo's to make you king, Stevie Ray makes those two fuck each other, and he makes use of blinding solos allot less.

[iBangRainbows]

@ChristopherIanKing

Ok understandable

BUT!

IMO Syn is best because he can play any style of music with such feel that you know it amazing.

Zacky is a good Rhythm player i understand he is not the best but i like him,and of course he is my fav but thats jsut me

I dindt mention any thing about sweep solo's or stuf like that i just said they are the best guitar DUO

their playing compliments each other's

[ChristopherIanKing]

I don't know what facts you base the "Syn can play all genres with feel" theories, I'm aware of there semi-country tracks as well as some of the...odder things he's written, but that's about it, his play is limited to two styles.

You are aware that what compliments the most is the fact that they duo sweep solo's and fast passages of tapping retardedness? This is the basis of Avenged Sevenfold soloing 101, Blinding solo's, divebombs, and repetetive riffs that are catchy.

[iBangRainbows]

@ChristopherIanKing

Ok respectable

Yes he play about two diff styles but thats who they are as a band

But he can play

Country Metal Punk Hardcore hell he even plays Regge and Highland

[iBangRainbows]

@ChristopherIanKing

srry had to post 2 comments

I conclude you're not a fan of Avenged Sevenfold but i am but im not a fanboy im open to anyones opinion.

[ChristopherIanKing]

Yes, I'm not a fan, largely for the fact that I much rather enjoy Symphony X, Pantera or The Smashing Pumpkins to this, don't ask, it's a matter of personal preference, but now that I think about It, I have not liked this band ever since they covered Walk by Pantera and don't get me wrong, It was a decent attempt at the song, but it's the bands theme song, I couldn't see Pantera covering Chapter Four or Bat Country.......If that were possible these days....I wouldn't mind listening. lol

[iBangRainbows]

@ChristopherIanKing

Yes that would be very interesting to hear

Im sure you're not interested but A7X made a song about Dime

call betrayed if you want you could check it out and tell me what you think

unless you have already heard it

[ChristopherIanKing]

I know the song Betrayed, I took the time to actually listen to there stuff before I decided whether I liked it or not.

[iBangRainbows]

@ChristopherIanKing

i c...

Well is there any songs you think stand out above the res of their work?

[ChristopherIanKing]

I personally think that Blinded In Chains or Afterlife pops out more than the rest of there work, they really added a sense of higher technicality than all of the other songs, which makes me respect them a little more because even though it not as technical as Symphony X or maybe Protest The Hero, It still holds true to there City Of Evil-esque style and provides a great flow with a nice touch of technicality and skill.

[iBangRainbows]

@ChristopherIanKing

A7X will always be my favorite band

But im glad to have this conversation with an intelligent person with a reasonable opinion that makes sense.Glad to talk to you...

[ChristopherIanKing]

Not many people on YouTube like that.

Most people will say "Avenged Sevenfold IS GAY! YOUR GAY FOR LIKING THEM! EMO NOOBZ!"

Retarded shit like that, your intitled to like whatever you want, I don't really care, It's your personal preference and I sure wouldn't like it if somebody told me I was gay because I loved Pantera or Down.

[iBangRainbows]

yea i know what you mean

It's fine with me you and anyone else can like whoever they want for any reason.U should have some good reason to like one band and not like another.but i respect you're opinions and like i said nice to meet an respectable fair and reasonable person on youtube such as you're self

[volvx]

esta chafa

[yupidoda]

[TheBeanman23]

he means its fake or gay
