Who win's this one then? Vai for technique, but I prefer Zappa's sound.

I'd have to disagree. Hendrix and Cobain write extremely different types of songs so it's extremely hard to say who's better at song writing. However, if your going to judge so quickly I'd say listen to the song If 6 Was 9 by Jimi. It's ****ing brilliant.


I think they are very equal musicians becides the fact that Jimi Hendrix could play guitar like a ****ing god. So yes Jimi Hendrix is a better guitar player.

And I don't mean to talk down about Gilmour either, I think he is a fine guitarist, but I wouldn't consider him one of the greatest.

I also want to throw in John Mitchell ... I think the guy is great.
Hey camjoe! It's temp100 from EBWF.


Frusciante and Latimer are my favourite guitarists.

Really? I don't think re-stringing his guitar would be THAT difficult. >_>

george harrison was pretty damn good. i'm not fond of shredders. if music was really about talent, then malmsteen would be a god. but its not about talent. its about wit. a 2 minute solo at 2000 notes per minute is never going to blow my mind, but 4 well crafted notes just might, if you're smart enough to figure it out.
