My Ten Favourite Guitarists

[ImVhOzzi]

Ok everyone, calm down. This video is called "My Ten Favourite Guitarists", not "The Ten Best Guitarists of All Time". This is obviously not an attempt to make a list of the best guitarists, but just the ones this guy likes the most.

Do you understand the difference between those two things?

[brb0713]

David Gilmour ??

[1hogfan83]

stevie ray vaughan?? ever heard of him??

[xtremeexterminating]

Any top 10 without Stevie Ray Vaughan in at least the top 5 spot is weak in my book, but this is your book. You listed some I have never heard of, now I have some research to do. Good Job!

[juhaaasd]

You ever heard dude named Dimebag?

[RochelleRockz]

Where was david gilmour, gary moore or kurt cobain? The only guitarists I really liked from the list was Jimi Hendrix & Jimmy Page who I think could of both been a bit higher up. But still a cool list :)

[goblueram]

hell yes on Ali Farka Toure, do you like his son Vieux? He can jam. And of course my favorite of all time, Jimmy Page

[swedeeepie]

John Jorgenson....list to his stuff...and you'll add him to your list. Maybe you won't like his type of music, but he  is GREAT!!! you play guitar?...try to do some his licks..

[Szamryn]

My list would be different but yours is cool cause I haven't know Ali Farka and now I started to look for informations about his music. So thanks

[zauzaumax]

#1 Jimmy Page!

[guitarmaster123445]

Slash and Angus are good, but there way over rated.

[11judaspriest]

@anyone who is giving negative comments: "this vid was all about an opinion, read the title MY Ten favourite guitarrists" ...

[blade25242524]

the only decent people in there was santana, hendrix, and clapton

[Stoned1959]

No.1.:Jimi Hendrix ! Ever.

[baldzenman]

Very nice list. EC, is, of course, #1. I was missing Steve Morse who, of course, is well ahead of folks like BB. But excellent list nonetheless.

[ardnut23]

you know nothing about music mate the best guitarists in the world are

1.jeff healy

2. angus young

3.stevie ray vaughn

@OMFGRevenge Angus does not play two cords he plays loads and just look at his guitar solos the 1 of the best in the world so i dont know what ur talkin about

[MrEricclaptonisgod]

stevie ray vaughan??

Great list anyway, you know about music

[SotR59]

Good list. Mine would include David Gilmour and Billy Gibbons.

[petaghgfhf]

jimi hendrix number 1

[cheezervvvvv]

Or how about top 10 female players!

[cheezervvvvv]

Very interesting.Agree with most of your choices maybe not in the same order.Only one I feel you left out of mix is Jeff Beck.Great Idea for vid man,nice job.Thinking u r about same age as I.Would be neat if you would do top 10 Acoustic artist's or maybe just a list of newer players...thanks for insightful vid.

[jamesfuller601]

carlos sanatana ftw!!!!

[Pranat69]

BB king = THE king

[cooperpimpin]

i like eric clapton but jimi is number one

[Crossrhoads2768]

I like this list it has a variety. I like how you put some of the greatest unsung guitar player zappa,Buchanan,betts, and ecepically Toure propbley one of the most talented guitar player ever bravo.

[TheExlord]

Where Randy Rhodes

[slashowns111]

why not kirk slash angus jeff hanneman is pretty good

[Gamagachee]

Finally, this is the first list in forever that I've seen Frank Zappa in and not Angus Young/Slash.

[brethartbiggestfan]

i dont like young/slash they stink GO GOLDY!!

[kettbo]

like to zappa in a top ten, good choice

[music2man88]

dude u are fucking stupid who are these guys no slash no bucket head no eddie van halen no angus young the only realli good guys you have is jimmy page jimi hendrix and eric claptin

[mauri3a]

you`re silly jimi hendrix is the best guitarrist!!!

[CanadianReplicaFine]

pretty good im happy someone else's favorite guitarist isn't jimi hendrix aswell

[osvas23]

holy crap i only heard of jimmi hendricks in this they must be old

[Calvervtutrp]

daron malakian? john petrucci? lawl, not everyone is a metalhead like me =D

[poia360]

nice input...

[ArTzACoUnT]

where the fuck is eddie van halen

[XDarKMiracle]

It's his personal favorites, not best/fastest/etc.

Good picks, btw.

[genjikaka]

lmfao

[Tmac3466]

Where is Mat Bellamy? Most underrated guitarist ever.

[BobbyB6106]

dude wheres randy rhoads?

[byakuganlord]

sucking his own dick, that where. he sucks!

[WalterZaninetti]

where is srv?

you are a dirty bitch!

[doraff02]

that is what i was thinking???? and also WHERES EDDIE VAN HALEN!!!!!!!!!!

[Darkstarskater123]

read the title haha I think it's a good list, zappa would be MY number 1 though

[petarjuric]

THATS WHAT I SAID!

[kdinhoguitarra]

I really liked your list. As you say, it's your top ten guitarrists. It's pretty nice to see a different taste of the common. Thanks for posting your guitar heroes.

[Kodadogo]

It's a great selection you have ... wish Jimi Hendrix was #1 also Mark Knoffler from Dire Strait selected...

[fedexual4]

good list my fav is jimmy page but people have there opinions and i respect that but i applaud you for not putting in angus young and slash i mean there great but real musicians know there not top ten

[rapide98]

weres angus

[ZH3DD300]

this is some fuckin fossil guitarest

[ElCommentor]

hendrix should be no.1 and where the fuck is dimebag darryl and joe satriani

[zeppelinstrat]

it's HIS FAVOURITE not yours so they're not on here

[MrJancl]

i agree with this top 10 but i think is jimmy hendrix God of electric guitar

[commieobama]

you posted a picture of Dicky Betts and not Duane Allman

[commieobama]

for showmanship/stage presence, Pete Townshend, just alot of fun to watch

[CorganIsBeast]

Long live Clapton. And by the way, when somebody titles a video MY top 10 favorite _____, don't expect them to put YOUR top 10 favorite _____.

[moonrider2703]

DAVID GILMOUR #1

he is the greatest !!!!

[filiprunar]

I'm going to mention one name, Albert Lee. Try to match his playing

[Tommunist07]

I think Shawn Lane can match Lee, but it comes to the point where those two are so good that you shouldn't even compare them, you should just love them.

[thomazziguitar]

JIMMY HENDRIX the best!

[fatmansmetal]

most of them were blues. I would disagree with some but some were in the correct places

[UryMuntic]

OMG..............XD

[jaimito600]

where is Angus Young?

[OMFGRevenge]

Anus Young sucks cock. He plays like two god damn cords.

[schoolboyROCK]

NO HE DOES NOT!!! you fu..ing shit! He is the GOD of Rock!!!!!!

[traindude95]

god of MUSIC AND ALL GUITARists idiot

[dyniaabri]

@OMFGRevenge

You don't know anything about him so shut the fuck up and listen his solos before you tell that he can't play. He is one of the greatest hardrock guitarist and legend. If someone here suck cock - you are this sucker.

[THeBEEtleNAMEdGEORGe]

@OMFGRevenge amen brotha

[ImVhOzzi]

@OMFGRevenge He's original. That is something only very few guitarists are. And he's not the only one to play like two chords...

[brendannelson4pm]

you are obviously retarded

[avgaser]

where are slash, knopfler and yngwie malmsteen!? i can hear ur not into that kind of music but man, but theyre great!

[sccouple2427]

1. HOWARD DUANE ALLMAN 2. Dickey Betts 3. Warren Haynes 4. Derek Trucks 5. Stevie Ray Vaughn 6. Eric Clapton 7. Carlos Santana 8. Jimmy Herring 9. Jerry Garcia 10. Jack Person 11. Sonny Landreth My favorite 10........Yeah I am a lil bias towards ABB guitarist = )

[Funkslaw77]

Farka Toure, awesome!!! My buddy turned me on to him and his son, they have a great sound.

[Funkslaw77]

Great list man, Iike that you have Duane Allman and Dickie Betts on here. My favorites (not best) would have to be 10. Duane Allman 9. Jay Farrar 8. Robbie Robertson 7. Nels Cline 6. Clapton 5. Page 4. Stevie Ray 3. Hendrix 2. Tony Rice 1. Jerry Garcia

[jjnhalo33]

I saw bb king in 07, it was a great show

[utuberyan8]

WHAT FUCKING SHITY CHOIES

[Vash6767]

you obviously know nothing about music.

[TheElMendigo]

@Vash6767 dude, it's his opinion. Fuck off.

[Juergen6]

seems like you prefer the bluesy kind of playing guitar...

i also like knopfler, gilmour, petrucci and many other guitar virtuosos (malmsteen, satriani, vai, buckethead etc.)

(dont underrate buckethead. well he's wearing a bucket but his discography is worthy to hear)

[mustachos1993]

Hmmm... no Nuno Bettencourt - Play with me ?

[XDcH]

1 Marty Friedman

2 Randy Rohads

3 Others :)

[lespauldude82]

Fantastic choices man!

[valentineguitar666]

You have a great list and the best thing about it is that its your favourites. Even though Jimmy Page is my favourite guitarist, you have a great taste of guitarists.

[rhydiantitch]

i respect your chois, good list

but jimi hendrix just blows your mind

why isn't he no 1

[fatas412]

i want everyone to know

bucket head isnt that good of a guitarist hes a technically skilled guitarist thats all

[reticul8this]

David Gilmore?

buckethead is a sick bastard lol

[triggerzeal]

BUCKET HEAD!!!!!!!

[KevinFeliciano]

KIRK HAMMETT!

[kzearo]

Good taste in music my friend.

[TrentMcneily]

I think you forgot buckethead.

[Mackeed0614]

this is for classy artists only! none of that play as fast as you can

[tincito86]

where is Angus young??

[jawsrocks]

yea.angus shreds. ANGUS FOR PRESIDENT!

[samurailipo]

top handsome guitarists

1George Harrison

2Keith Richards

3Clapton

[quimscd]

George as number one, undoubtedly. His solos were a piece of heaven. And he could rock too, although he was more into the realm of the spiritual.

[heatherdurds]

its favorite not favourite retard none of those are good guitarists and ypu forgot angus!!!

[JkNone]

i quess he doesent like him....

[NeilThompson30]

Angus who?

[heatherdurds]

WHAT, what!!!!

[NeilThompson30]

Sorry - I've just realised who it is -

It's this bloke in a band that became popular in the UK at the same time that most people were listening to punk rock.

While we were listening to the Damned and the Clash some people actually listened to this band!

[mad4itcuz]

Knopflers the man

[fatas412]

angus young the guitarst from acdc

[jayjuan4]

NO WAY!!!

[NeilThompson30]

NO WAY!!! What?

[edulandazurico]

and george harrison????? this great guitrists in this world !!

[quimscd]

Listen to "Life Itself", with his awsome double solo, or his posthumous "Stuck Inside a Cloud", if it doesn't reach the innermost depths of your soul, I don't know what does.

[quimscd]

No one ever could do what George did with his guitar. He could emulate the sitar, rock your soul with a mean solo or uplift your spirits with a pedal steel guitar. George Harrison!

[NeilThompson30]

George Harrison's good -

but he copied Carl Perkins

[lloydy715]

[Linzordavus]

I would put Duane Allman as the number 1. Absolutely the best guitar player of all time in my opinion.

[happyjoe4ever]

Great another white guy who can't stop rim-jobbing blues and weak back beats. You are a simpleton! What ever works for you though, TOOL! LOL!

[kidbook32]

[AceGuitarR7]

You guys are morons... Hes not saying whos the best.. hes saying who he likes. So he can put whatever he wants on there. Wether you agree or not. He could put Paris Hilton on their and it would be HIS choise. Some people are stupid.

[waynegrovs]

hey fuck wits did he not say his favorite guitarists you assholes just like getting on here and canning people fuck off

[pinky1234109]

jimi at 5.. dude your music sucks ass... hendrix should be 1

[peppers93]

jimi hendrix is the first and then ther's john frusciante!!

[williamemyrates]

FUCK YOU! Jimi Hendrix on 5! dude you don´t get a shit of music! And where is slash?

[flatoutguitarist617]

why the fuck isnt slash up there!?!?! u have no taste in music! LMAO im jk all those ppl are great but slash is still god like

[waynegrovs]

maybe because unlike you he has taste slash is a no talent loser he isnt fit to wipe the ass of hendrix, blackmoore, page, satriani, SRV, petrucci, malmsteen,

[iLikeMyNutsSalty2]

This sucked beside tht u put Jimmy PAge in there!!!! JIMMY PAGE IS #1!!!! I never even heard of the first guys!!!!

[pinto4646]

yay frank zappa!

[sam19851]

I liked the list, isn't really exactly how i would do it but thats the whole point!? lol. Loved seeing Ec no.1 about time :P.

One thing tho, no Peter Green!?...

Apart from that interesting list mainly due to the fact that you didn't include loads of talentless guitar rapists caning up and down scales. Peace and Love. I would have made a list a few years back, now i fear i am a little beyond that no disrespect.

[blacklistedin]

i hate eric crapton

[yanmingyuyu]

lol B.B KING!!!! love that guy

[skankspankr]

Listen to the sustain of Duane Allman's slide at 3:39, sublime!!

[stalefishtweak]

i really love this list cmon gyus b.b king deserves his due !!!!!

plus he put some guitarists i hav never heard before here!!!!!

to make these lists better they should be set according to era that way new and old guitarists will get their due!!!!!

nevertheless great list!!!

[Voorhees67]

6-10&2&3 have really retarded names and their music is very slow and boring.

[didgeman987]

sorry but 0:25 just made me laugh

never heard of that guy

[000Nevermind000]

Since i've been loving you is such an awesome song.. one of Led Zeppelins best imo.

[JonnyYang123]

Eric Clapton is probably always in the top 10 and Jimi Hendrix is almost always #1

[CHARGERLEVANI]

10th lol :D

[BiscoHeadx420]

i very much respect this list for a number of reasons. firstly you show both allman brother originals some love, betts gets forgotten alot of the time. secondly you give slowhand ultimate props by putting him at number 1. thirdly your list isnt saturated with shred clones like most other peoples lists. that being said, hendrix needs to be higher up, and maybe show SRV some love. otherwise good call

[Jake66564]

its his favorites not the top 10 of all time dumbshits

5/5

[verylonelygal]

wheres john frusciante lol? I bet I will get 10 million negatives for this comment hehe. But I personally believe he's one of the younger legends. He should of been 10th or something.

[stalefishtweak]

dude its rare that john composes great solos.... but personally his riffs and melodies are my favourite but as far as solos go.... he's no hendrix.....

[Kirkola]

Damn good list...could have made room for another rather than both Allman guitarists. How come Joe Walsh never gets respect on these lists?

[classicrockrockz]

No Brian May? :(

[DAaaMan64]

All this blues and no mention of SRV?

[kalucita605]

great... i liked your list. Is very blussy and have a lot of rock and soul. great.

besides.. evh, slash, vai... are just good players

[nachocarancho]

[guillermogol]

[18guyy]

[terdman1976]

[MitchMxx]

[MitchMxx]

[Madcap1969]

i liked this list very much.

[itsstewiedealwithit]

anyone who does not have synyster gates on there list is a fucking retard and does not listen 2 good music a7xstalker666 is my fuckin man

[antonmadden1]

[cheeks717ev]

[a7xstalker666]

my list 1.synyster gates 2.eddie van halen 3.alexi laiho 4.slash 5.tony iommi 6.eric clapton 7.dimebag darrell 8.joe satriani 9.angus young 10.billy gibbons

[magicman1215]

[Y2JeffHardy1993]

wheres randy rhoads????

[timmatimma123]

oh my fuckin god... its all old people!!! the youngest one is carlos santana.

i guess i sorta understand... but in 10 years youll wish u thought of Syn Gates. The guy is a beast for 27 years old.

[NPC514]

This would be my top ten list.Please feel free to reply. 1.Stevie Ray Vaughn 2.Eric Clapton 3.Ted Nugent 4.Peter Frampton 5.Brian May 6.Allen Collins 7.Gary Rossington 8.Dick Dale 9.Carlos Santana 10.Johny Winter And, yes, folks I intentionally left out jimi Hendrix.Not because I think he is bad guitarist,I don't he's great,but because I feel he is vastly over rated.

[purpendicular69]

If you're going to make a top 10 guitarist list, I would have thought it would be based on talent, not whether the guy is over rated or not.

Dickhead.
