ATTN: I am not any of the guitarists in this video, nor do I own any of the rights to their work.

Please dont say:

"Where is so and so, he is my favorite and better than all the guitarists in you video." You know what? Since you like him so much why dont you make your own list and put him in it?

"All of these guys suck, all they do is simply shred." Again make your own list, put your favorite guitarists in it and leave me alone.

10. Steve Vai - For The Love Of God
9. Joe Satriani - Surfing With The Alien
8. Marty Friedman and Jason Becker - Cacophony - Speed Metal Symphony
7. John Petrucci - Glasgow Kiss
6. Eddie Van Halen - Van Halen - Eruption
5. Joe Stump - Prelude
4. Micheal Angelo Batio - No Boundaries
3. Buckethead - Nottingham Lace
2. Paul Gilbert - Racer X - Frenzy
1. Yngwie Malmsteen - Molto Arpeggioso

Please rate, comment and subscribe. :D

  • @crazyerko and where is the Randy Rhoads

  • I agree with Yngwie being at number one, and maybe Gilbert at number two, because he certainly ranks high, but after that it all goes downhill. MAB is much better than Buckethead, whilst Joe Stump is just an Yngwie rip-off. Why is Jason Becker not included? Or George Lynch? Or Randy? They deserve to be on the list.

  • where is ritchie blackmore or TONY MC ALPINE

  • where is allen collins

    

  • doesnt anyone ever recognize dimebag? domination was sick solo, gilberts ahead of him tho.

  • where is herman lee ? :D

  • jimmi page jimmi hendrix slash santana

  • This list is 'some of the fastest metal guitarists'. Because Eric Clapton, Doug Aldrich and Gary Moore own these guys. Plus, these three are faster than everyone apart from Malmsteen.

  • Hell, you must change the name to best metal guitarists, because these guys are definitely NOT the best guitar players all time

  • Enjoyed the video. Would have been better with Joe Perry (he is unreal) but different opinions are interesting.

  • Yo! to all of you guys who whine about emotion or feeling or something like that, remember there are a couple of things that make a guitarist good. Their Influence, Technical Ability, Emotion, Genre Fit, and Writing Capability are what make a good guitarist. These shred guys fit their genre really well. They also have incredible influence and ability. While they may score few points for emotion, they score well in other areas. So settle down.
