1. Izzy
2. Hetfield
3. Jack white
4. Malcom Young
5. Ace Frehley is abit

but they all are fucking legends :bow: :bow: :bow:

Izzy's guitar playing is nothing special.

hetfield...what the fuck?

jack white, can barely play he actually makes kurt cobain and billy joe armstrong look competent.

malcom young-much like angus, seems to know about 4 chords

ace frehly is the best on your list but he's still nothing particularly special









a real underrated guitar player would be Rusty Cooley (none of you are likely to know him but if you bothered to look him up you would understand why i said him), and Miika Tenkula (RIP)
Apparently a new Amy Winehouse 'Greatest Hits' collection is coming out, but the tinfoil and spoons aren't included.

Cooley is a great player, but he approaches "speed" (which can be an avenue of expression) in the same way Michael Angelo Batio does (= more = better). To me, his pretty one-dimendional songwriting isn't underrated at all, but his technical proficiency certainly is....

Eh, honestly? Billy Corgan.

I consider underrated and overrated and over used word, but Billy Corgan is so often referred to as an asshole that like Axl, people forget he is somewhat talented. He doesn't shred, he's not naturally gifted and God-like, but he is as creative as they come with 6 strings.

Adman Sandler thats right the actor but hes amazing
My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide

Fuck yeah- Eno/Fripp: No Pussyfooting.

Loved his work with Bowie and in particular the "Discipline" era King Crimson.

No...thats something Ill have to hunt for.

Adrian Belew is also a rather overlooked performer/guitarist-spectacular.

Michael Schenker

Former Scorpions (at 16!) UFO (on and off because he's unpredictable) and his own band MSG. Slash mentioned him in his book as one of his influences.
My 14/15 year old teenage crush.  At that age Schenker was a god to me.....:smoking:  :rockon:

Billy Corgan - As TSI said he has the ability to turn a simple rock song into a genius work of art. He's so innovative and his soloing just compliments his voice so much.
