Angus Young. On stage he's like... woah.

Technially Angus is very average, but IMO he's an awesome guitarist for his delivery, his no frills style and that devilish tone of his.

I'd say Angus delived quite a few frills, thats like saying his guitaring wasn't exciting. 'Highway to Hell' anyone? And 'Thunderstuck' not to mention the fun in 'She's got the jack.' Live he puts quite a few frills in, the Donington perfomance was amazing, just for his solo piece.

Does it really matter how easy it is to play though? It's a great, classic riff, and Angus wrote it.

Kirk Hammett is great. To me more than great. Best

True, its very easy hammer ons and pull offs.

But that dosen't make it any less of a cool riff.

The best? John Petrucci would be the obvious answer I guess if it comes down to pure technical ability.

John McLaughlin > John Petrucci.

There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.
