Wheres Joe Satriani? Where's Steve Vai, and where's Eric Johnson?
I agree with Hendrix but Satriani deserves to be in the top 5. and I am
sorry to say but I think Santana is way better than Kurt Korbain.

Another one of those lists. It seems to me that RS doesnt know much more
than anyone else. This isnt a list of 1000 top guitarists of all time, this
is a list of the authors opinion. I see we have Rock, Pop, Folk and Blues
guitarists but country is conspicously left out. Maybe I just didnt catch
it, but I didnt see Chet Atkins...so Joni Mitchell is a superior guitarist
to Chet Atkins? Roy Clark? IMHO, I dont think so.
