Respect earned
>no andres segovia
>no Jimi Hendrix

0. John Fahey
>no Eric Clapton
>no Jimmy Page
[spoiler] was the bait too obvious? [/spoiler]
Some of my favorite guitarists are Isaac Brock, Junji Ishiwatari, Wata, and Giles Corey
This is also coming from someone who has played guitar for 10 years and used to listen to a lot of prog.
>Giles Corey
you cannot be serious
Yeah meant whichever Dan or Tim are doing guitar in Deathconsciousness.
Played enough Town of Salem recently I keep thinking Giles Corey as an actual name.
>Nels Cline
>literally the guitarist for Wilco
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I know for a fact you think you're better than other people because you can name obscure guitarists and I also know for a fact you didn't put any famous guitarists like Hendrix or Clapton because you fancy yourself as a guitarist connoisseur
end yourself my man, your life means nothing
Hendrix >> SRV, Julian Lage, Tosin Abasi >>>>> else
David Gilmour > David Pajo > Everyone else
>no kurt coubin
>no rauol bjorkenheim
why don't you gas yourself then?
>no Mark Knopfler
>no Carlos Santana
Kurt Cobain was a great songwriter but he really wasn't that great of a guitarist desu
I saw Frith many years ago and it was pretty mind blowing. I'm still not sure what to make of it.
>no Frank Zappa
what a shitty list
>no Guthrie
This.
>no Robert Johnson
>no Django
Ok pleb
Eugene Chadbourne is okay but basically everything he has done has been done much better by people like Frith. Nels Cline isn't bad but he isn't anywhere near as good as almost everyone else on that list and many others and hasn't really done anything of note. Glenn Branca just wishes he was Rhys Chatham.
You're missing quite a few guitarists.
Where's Greg Ginn?
Sully 'Porky' McGee
Sam Brock
Ian Kennedy
Brian Wooley
Andrew Adams
Owen Smith-Monning
Just to name a few of my favorites
