And some more for you! Its impossible to answer whos the best guitarist, its like asking whats the best album of all time, i'm just pointing out that the teacher can be bettered. You have the English and Irish guys like Page, Beck, Slash, Gilmour, Jones, Clapton, the Edge, gary Moore and then the USA guys like Satriani, Vai, Buckethead, Wylde, Petrucci and Dimebag.

Some had style and inovation some had speed or technique but all were great in their own way.
