Just wondering who a few of your favorite guitar players are.

My current favorite is Stevie Ray Vaughn, or Buckethead...depends on the day. :P

Well, I thought this was popular media stuff, but I will give you the pleasure of my answer :P

Stevie Ray Vaughn is my favorite, with an honorable mention to Dickie Betts (of the Allman Bros.) and Alex Lifeson (RUSH).

I would have to say, my favorites will lie around the 80's. My current favorites would have to be George Lynch, Eddie Van Halen, and John Petrucci

I'm going to have to say Brian E. Haner Jr.(Synyster Gates). He is amazing.

Yeah Stevie Ray is a Guitar God, but there are many Music Gods dead and alive. glad to see a diverse list so far. Another question, What do you guys think of the Joe Satriani and Coldplay lawsuit? Do you think Coldplay committed plagiarism?

Because I am still undecided on that issue.

I agree that Synyster Gates is a very talented man, and I'm sure as time goes on he will be remembered as a guitar legend.
