AMEN to that brother! Skynyrd are one my fav. bands EVER! "Gimme back my bullets" makes me wanna drink whiskey and shoot stuff.

My fav. player isn't alive anymore :( Sir.Dimebag Darrell friends.

But if I had to choose now! I'd have to say Mick from Slipknot, the other guy too(can't remeber his name). Theur newest album is so much more precise playing that their earlier stuff. They can both shred batman fast but still have that low chunky sound that kicks you in the teeth.

Hard to say you know, for sure. I really like Kerry King too, even the 2 guitarists from Strung Out, or Thrice even. Their good in their own league. When you're a guitar player it is so hard to choose just one :D

joe satriani
tom morrello
naluman

Snooks Eaglin, of New Orleans, born 1936, blows away everybody IMHO.

Hendrix! He could make it sing! :D

james....he is pretty good aswell but mick is amazing...

my favorite guitarist alive....would be...alexi (from children of bodom)buckethead is amazing...ummmm thats a hard question....probley either the strapping young lad guitarist or the nile guitarist...

Az... I see your avitar, and I'm like this cat is laid back, then everyonce in a while you post your musical preferances and I remember your a metal head. It's fucking with me haha. No doubt though alexi can SHRED! I know Townsend plays guitar for SYL but I'm not sure if he does the lead work. Jed Simon is the name of the other SYL guitarist. I'm not too into nile so I don't have info on them.
