Top 100 Guitarists Of All Time
|
|
This is a list I compiled based on my opinions and while many will disagree these are my opinions. My list is subject to change of course. I based my selections on overall talent, influence in their genre's, body of work and how much I liked them (in that order). Your comments are welcomed, but again don't flame me if you disagree. We each have our own opinions and I would appreciate it if every one respects mine. I will return the favor.
