sorry, I didn't realize you don't like rock or blues music. Who are your favorite guitarists?
courtney love i think
I do. It's mostly all I listen to, but these """greats""" like Clapton and Page and others literally got famous for playing the same scale over and over.
You can play the same scale many different ways.
Jimi Hendrix: initial electric guitar + blues optimization
Django Reinhardt: Jazz guitar genius with techniques still used today by jazz and non- jazz artists
Glenn Branca: king of using prepared guitars and textured noise rock style guitar playing
Robert Fripp: Frippertronics
John Fahey: Combining various influences to make contemporary folk guitar interesting
Andres Segovia: THE man when it comes to classical guitar giving the guitar a different purpose in classical music.
There are a lot of metal guitarists I would include, too, based on fantastic riff work on certain albums, but that's not consistent enough (ex. Trey Azagthoth on Morbid Angel's first two albums being top tier guitar work while their last two albums being below bottom tier guitar work.)
It sounds like you haven't listened to them very much if you don't hear what makes them great
For me it's Junior Kimbrough or Neil Hagerty
I didnt know Seinfeld played guitar
...
poor mans justin trosper
These guys did more with a G major/E minor blues pentatonic scale than most "guitar virtuosos" do with every scale/mode given to them. It's not just variety in pitch (which was NEVER the thing in blues to begin with), but rhythm, timber, types of chords, ect.
Ernie Isley deserves a mention
...
Not really
sure it's dadrock in here
Because the last 10-015 years have been great for the guitar?
Sup Forums doesn't know shit about music

That's John Fahey, right? I'm listening to Voice of the Turtle right now; good shit.
Yes it is
>tfw wanna buy John Fahey vinyls
>no record player
The right answer
He's the sole reason I bought a white Gibson V back in '08. Still the best sounding guitar I own.
