This is a rock oriented list. I do have some blues guitarists on here that I feel have a more rock oriented sound, like SRV. But Django and Pass certainly don't qualify as rock.

Thurston Moore is up there. Kim Gordon is the bassist, not a guitarist.



200 Greatest Guitarists in Rock.

If it were an all genres list, there would barely be any rock in it at all.



Eh no... There's a lot of obscure names in there, from all the big rock genres. If the popular names are higher, that's because influence and impact is a factor.



Absolutely not and I'm quite insulted that you are suggesting that.
Yeah fair enough, I admit I was a bit harsh. Also I put Moore & Gordon because I couldnt remember which one was the bassist lol.
Really? I couldnt find Squire, will just have to have another look.

EDIT: This is a good reason why Santana should be higher up the list:
This is the only song I religiously listen to at least once a day without fail, usually at night.

O and heres another:

Stop sticking up for your fellow mods & be yourself. (Thats if you are a mod, which Im supposing you are judging by your post count).
