Which guitarists do you consider the masters of subtle atmospheric and less technical approach?
I'm thinking of people like Mark Knopfler, David Gilmour and Steve Rothery

Michael gira desu
The Edge honestly
Robert Fripp was pretty good at both sort of approaches.
There's a lot of good technique on this album but it's done to make ambient/atmospheric music on pic related.
If Bono wasn't such a dumbass, I bet that U2 would be genuinely accepted on this board.
Gilmour is for fucking dads, overrated piece of shit, went to one of his shows and i was falling asleep 90% of the time.
(You)
Let me guess, you enjoy Disturbed and Slipknot.
Johnny Marr was brilliant at layering guitar parts to create textures
>being this Pleb
No, i like Sup Forumscore
If you think people here like those bands you need to lurk more
Johnny Marr is better than all those shit Blues guitarists people jerk off to
There's no talking to this guy, just ignore him and move on.
Mark Knopfler less technical? Also unpopular opinion, I never really got Pink Floyd. I always thought they were kinda boring, and Gilmour isn't a particularly amazing guitarist but he's heralded as one of the greats for some reason
JJ Cale
Lmao
Go fuck yourself drone
You have to go back summerfriends, Pink Floyd is good but Gilmour is not a remarkable guitarist, Roger Waters is the real talent behind the band
Why shouldn't David Gilmour be considered as one of the greats? Maybe you have a problem with him because he isn't playing 7000 notes a minute.
If you aren't moved by this, you're either memeing or being a contrarian on purpose:

Josh klinghoffer.
Mizutani, Lou Reed, Jandek, Neil Young, Loren Connors, Mayo Thompson, the list simply goes on..
It's not that, I'm not really into ultra technical music like that, I just think that his solos and playing seems almost lazy, and it's not as evocative as people say it is
Gilmour is a good guitarist, but certainly not one of the best I've heard. he was definitely more talented instrumentally than Mason and Waters though
David Gilmour is great because he has an incredible feel and one of the greatest guitar tones of all time, but if you don't emotionally connect with the music being played then he'll probably come across as mediocre, but his playing makes me feel like no other guitar player can.
As for the thread's original question I'll go with Kevin Shields and Bilinda Butcher as a duo.

heres fripp doing cool shit instead of masturbating
>instead of masturbating
I always thought he was pretty great about making his solos memorable and emotional. At least on the studio stuff. They're usually pretty technical and adventurous but unless you're going for the lessor live stuff or ProjeKcts, he's normally not just filling space between vocals.
Bait.
>Loren Connors
Damn, Loren Connors is good stuff sempai
Andy summers
Wes Borland
Streets have no name is a prime example of that
but because bono is an asswipe all of U2's music is shit
man of taste
This is literally the worst opinion I have ever seen on this board in 3 years
Agreed
Well that was a surprise. I wasn't expecting that at all.
Ira Kaplan
Both these opinions are correct.
Charlie Burchill
Except that's not Robert Fripp. That's Paul Thompson.
This is Fripp (with Phil Manzanera I may add)
youtu.be
Adrian Utley of Portishead (seriously mind blowing live)
overrated as fuck
just do a normal rock solo and throw in a couple of major and minor third bends and you're basically david gilmour
Gilmour is the reason Pink Floyd managed to make some relevant music.
He's the only good musician in the band, that helps.
Waters was the creative force behind the group, but he is an awful guitarist.
Case in pount: Waters couldn't play the bass line on One of These Days correctly, so Gilmour decided to play it instead. They ended up laying both bass lines over each other, sounds great if you ask me, but don't tell me Waters is a great musician.
Good summary.
to be fair without the hard-edged contrarian-isms of Roger Waters and the rest of Pink Floyd his music started to get a lot more boring- just look at Division Bell

It's a lot more 'relaxed' yeah, but I think it's a fitting end to their discography.
It's also my number one album when dropping acid.
