You're almsot as stupid as Mark Saleski, and trust me, thats pretty god damned stupid.Who the fuck do you think you are. You probably don't even play guitar! You're probably some fucking egghead that sits infront of the fucking computer all day and looks up stuff on Wikipedia. Mark Saleski and guppy, you're both motherfucking assholes.

@280, Obviously you don't have a f*cking clue about music never mind about Mr. Saleski. Mark has more of an understanding about talent than you'll ever acquire in your measly, pathetic existence! AND,Stop dropping the most known axe slinging names, it still doesn't show that you know jack about music. Just a quick FYI... Leo Kottke has more skill in his pinky than that overrated hack named Slash has had in his whole career! Take a hike Bozo!

Wow, I simply can not believe how horrible this list is. Eddie Van Halen, Jimmi Hendrix, and Jimmie Page aren't even on the top 10! Not to mention Slash, or even Kirk Hammet! One question I need to ask you, who in the world is Mark Ribot. Mark Saleski, you are probably the most inncompetent, imbecilec, unintellegent, unobserving man I have ever met in my entire life. And by the way, the Rolling Stone top 100 guitarists list is rated 1 and 1/2 stars out of five. So get that through your thick skull. You should win an award for being the worst music obbsesive ever. Your not even good accidently! I am amazed by your stupidity.

its not jimi hendrix's guitar skills tht puts him in the top 10 its tht he uses a combination of fuzz and feedback to make beautiful music, n to be honest if jimi hendrix never existed im pretty sure tht none of the other famouse guitarists we no today will be playin such amazing stuff....hendrix started the world of rock of.

Chris... I've never heard of 'em(Winter) either till now. Nice Review! Though I have a feeling that is due to Candlemass' existence. Not much made an impression on me in the Doom Metal genre when I was younger like Tales of Creation...

My guess would be "yes" Brian, What's your thoughts on Winter? Just posted a review, would be intested in your thoughts.

No mention of Ronnie Montrose anywhere. Not the most popular guy around, but a fantastic guitarist. One website list even listed Sammy Hagar - that's funny! The consensus still seems to end up with Hendrix, Page, Van Halen, Clapton, Stevie Ray, The Edge, Carlos, Eric Johnson, BB, etc. Rolling Stone didn't get it all wrong. But they sure included a lot of jokes in there. Must've got some good schwag at one time or another.

forrest, yeah...see, the point of this list was to act as a sort of counterweight to the rolling stone list...i just have a different idea of what "good" is. and yes, i was around when Boston exploded onto the scene back in the day. i didn't get to see them until the second tour, but they were really good. Tom Sholz (and Boston in general) get lumped into the "arena rock" thing...unfairly, i think. the first Boston album had a lot going for it, and didn't sound much like anything else back thaen. holy smokes, this article is over four years old!

as I posted my first comment...i noticed NONE of these lists have Tom Scholz of Boston on them... MARK...have you ever thought about how Tom introduced sounds never heard before and thought of catchy riffs?...im not saying he's the best ever, but should definetly be in the top 30 at least... Plus, Boston played such MIND-BLOWING shows LIVE...

What I love about the guitar, is there's always someone new who's going to rock the world of guitar. Now comes this guy named Jordan Rivers, is he popular?.....He's not famous yet, but look at Topix.com voteing poll othe the top 10 guitar players living today. Jordan Rivers,has a commanding lead with over 770 Votes in first place and Eric Clapton is in second at 235 Votes, followed by Santana at 130 Votes,It's shocking to see someone take a lead like this. I almost want to yell at people and say...come on back up Eric Clapton, he's our guitar hero. But Damn, can that Jordan Rivers play !! He has to be one of the top 5 electric guitar players of all time,and his acoustic guitar, I never have heard better. This guy can do it all. I almost wanted to hate Jordan Rivers for taking the spot light. But some blogs and forums online have him listed as the 3 best living guitar player alive today. IS he?...his new CD comming out in April may tell the truth. I heard it's AWESOME and all the guitar players want it. But where did this guy come from? Out of the blue? Thanks John
