Jack Parker
John Frusciante
John Mayer?
Daniel Anderson
Aphex Twin
Chase Rodriguez
Probably, but he musically expresses himself a lot differently from hendrix even if he plays guitar similar to him.
Jace Diaz
Can we please end the John Fruciante is a good guitar player meme?
Liam Ortiz
But he's good
Joseph Gutierrez
Gary Clark Jr
Julian Sullivan
St. Vincent
Brandon Phillips
Anthony Kiedis ruined every song Frusciante made with rhcp. JUST
Xavier James
No he isn't. His technique is ultra sloppy and his phrasing is very, very poorly articulated.
Andrew Brown
Eric gales
Jose Morris
just like hendrix
Charles Ramirez
Haven't liked Muse in a while but Matt Bellamy is pretty sick on guitar. Fairly inventive as well, both live and in the studio.
Carson Brooks

Dylan Miller
skrillex
Adam Myers
Lil Wayne
David Ward
Tosin Abasi
Hudson Nguyen
Hendrix had MUCH better phrasing. Granted it wasn't outstanding but it was at least coherent.
Ethan Reyes
Nah senpai too many strings
Asher Flores
He's good
Evan Murphy
He's amazing
Brandon Campbell
adds to his unique style with the thumb action
David Davis
>amazing
Sebastian Collins
That's his style. He likes to mute the strings on purpose. Actually sounds a lot more like Zappa than Hendrix at times.
Daniel Foster
He's too robotic.
Ryan Watson
That's not even what I'm talking about.
Hunter Martinez
Justin Walker
I guess you could say that.

Asher Rodriguez
probably some kid in south america
Julian Brown
His phrasing is good though. Sometimes he repeats notes too much but that's his style.
Levi Allen
Prince
Cameron Rivera
he's not cool tho
William Watson
...
Carter Evans
daily reminder jimi hendrix sucks ass
Kevin Cox
true, but he's prolly the most talented guitarist of this generation
Thomas Diaz
tfw devo kill jimi on his own track
Jeremiah Cooper
ronald
Kevin Taylor
there isnt any. the guitar is a dead and irrelevant "instrument'
Noah Williams
this unfortunately
but it's nice to listen to music made when guitar composition was at its peak
Jason Baker
you're both retarded
it's neither dead or irrelevant, it's simply not as popular as synth
when the guitar was at its peak, the piano wasn't dead or irrelevant either
by all means keep missing out on contemporary talent
Mason Cruz
it was supposed to be J dilla when he was getting experimental on them intricate samples but dies short after
Grayson Carter
Yeah this thread is full of real talented guitarists.
Sebastian Williams
I still think Little Wing is one of the best songs ever made, shreddy jazz wankers will never touch it
Christian Evans
Not full of, but there's one or two.
Jack Collins
yeah, Eric Gales, Tosin Abasi, Gary Clark Jr and Mateus Asato aren't talented, right?
fuck off
Wyatt Rogers
Definitely one of Jimi's better works.
Sebastian Russell
you were saying
Jose Allen
It's actually this. Jimi is the GOAT so I assume OP means who is the GOAT of our generation/lifetime. It's unquestionably Frusciante. I don't care what you guys think about the Pepper's catalog, Frusciante is 'The Guy.' If I ever have kids and they want to know who was the best guitarist, who was most creative, who could write songs for days, it's him.
Jayden Green
You're literally retarded.
Christian Edwards
this desu
Ian Kelly
The perfect cover
youtube.com
Christopher Diaz
Wow dude you really hurt me right in my pride. How ever will I recover from this acerbic jab from an anonymous member of a Buthanese macrame forum. I'm actually pissed I'm going to go up to my room and smash my fists into my pillows, imagining those pillows to be your smelly poo-poo face. I hate you I hate you I hate you!!!!!
Samuel Taylor
desperation, ladies and gentlemen
Chase Gonzalez
I have to at least try to help you. I can't control how you react to the truth.
Julian King
this entire thread reeeeeks of autism.
Justin Hall
such a thing could never again exist, let alone during this fucking generation of music
Jonathan Wilson
good post, not autistic at all
Henry Torres
le reddit man :)
Liam Powell
Spaghetti
Christopher Rivera
He is. Whether or not you want to give muse any credit, matt bellamy is creative with his guitar effects and his phrasing is tasteful
Jaxson Myers
>Ctrl. F -- "Jack White"
>0 results
Embarrassing.
Noah Stewart
Probably not the best of your generation but Ben Levin from bent Knee is great!
Gavin Ortiz
I'm not a Muse fan exactly, but I do enjoy his phrasing as a guitarist.
Jace Evans
Don't get me wrong, user, he's above average, but nothing amazing.
Justin James
John Frusciante
Omar Rodriguez-Lopez
Isaac Martin
He might not be a great guitar player but he's an amazing songwriter.
Aaron Wright
Buckethead or Kawabata
Ayden Robinson
>John Mayer
Nice trips though
John Cook
Maybe not of this generation but in terms of redefining the instrument's sound
Landon Thompson
John Mayer is one of the better players posted in this thread so far.
Xavier Torres
Mayer is an excellent guitarist, but I don't think anyone would put him forth as this generation's Hendrix, even though he's influential due to the celebrities he fucked, inspiring a generation of (literal) wankers.
Levi Barnes
the only correct answer
Jaxon Miller
are you 45?
Cameron Thomas
Fair. I was actually going to include the incomparable to Hendrix part but said fuck it instead and posted half a thought.
Christian Brooks
You can't deny Mayer's greatness and the fact he was massively popular in the mainstream keeping rock and roll alive on the charts. That's why people rate Mayer and Frusciante, because that's literally the last time rock music was box office. They were true rock stars and had hits for days.
Continuum is a great album by the way I'd give it a listen-through.
Sebastian Martin
I'm not denying it, I'm saying it isn't on par with Hendrix's. Technically, he's much better.
I prefer Try! with the Trio, though.
Wyatt Rogers
He did nothing for Rock'n'Roll, though. Blues, yeah.
Connor Johnson
Yeah but Hendrix was a revolutionary. That's the main staple behind him. Van Halen arguably changed the game the most after him as far as rock guitar went. Other than that you have people utilizing neat things that distinguish them amongst the hoard of mediocrity we have in music today, but nobody changed the rock guitar game as much as Hendrix.
Jayden Morris
...
Anthony Ramirez
Oh don't get me wrong, I don't rate him near Hendrix. The thing about OP's premise though is that rock music isn't nearly as culturally important in our lifetimes as it was during Jimi's, so no one would be nearly as popular, great, or creative. Jimi did it first and he did it 50 years ago. No one is our generation's Jimi Hendrix. Instead we have Mayer and Frusciante.
>I prefer Try! with the Trio, though.
That's respectable.
Camden Perez
Mayer is a Berklee faggot though
Also, his music is all uninspired shit and his personality is that of a spoilt trust fund spastic.
John Frusciante comes closest, in my opinion.
RHCP are garbage but he's a great guitarist with his own recognisable style.
Bentley Thomas
Mayer has very inspired playing, Frusciante does not.
You've got that backwards m80
Jace Wright
rhcp's bass and drums are very good, user, even though the songs are prostitutes
Nathan Flores
Anyone else astounded that Frusciante survived the 90s? I thought at least 1 Pepper would die
Carter Richardson
Not at all.
Mayer is probably the better musician in terms of technical ability, but Frusciante's style and output is better, in my opinion. I mean, John Mayer's creative output is garbage in comparison. No one listens to that shit except teenage girls who want to fuck him.
Flea is a decent bassist.
They already did before John joined, you pleb.
Also, in 95 he was close to death.
Cooper Brown
Mayer's actual commercial output is indeed garbage, but his potential is much greater than Fruaciante's. Mayer actually understands music whereas Frusciante just kind of guesses.
Elijah Cox
Mick and Danish Pete.
Oliver Gonzalez
>They already did before John joined, you pleb.
I know this... did you read my post? I said the 90s. I'm referring to the classic RHCP line-up from Mother's Milk and Onward. The famous one. I'm surprised one of them didn't die then.
David Perez
Nah, Frusciante knows theory and shit, you're just ignorant.
Mayer's window has closed. He's not in his peak anymore. He collects watches and does other pleb shit now.
He never had the passion to be a great musician that put out great music anyway, more a career move for him.
Christian Richardson
I need to listen to more of his solo stuff. I love Niandra Lades and I LOVE Smile from the Streets You Hold, but that's as far as I got. What else is worth a look?
Lincoln Price
They are playing John Mayer at 4:02
You all lose
Pic related. It's my fucking Strat, enjoy plebz

Blake Williams
pbx and enclosure are generally seen by hardcore fans to be amazing, but they can be harsh listens if you're not used to what they offer.
