| Since the topic does not say that it is restricted to one genre, how about Chet Atkins and Merle Travis? Has anyone mentioned Jeff Baxter? |

Hey Aeromaniac ive been banging the drum for Michael Angelo for weeks and weeks on here, check out his own website on www.angelo.com he's a real deal shredder, nobody can widdle like michael.
(have you also checked out his wig??, he is as bald as a coot under that artificial fluffy beaver).
I dont normaly go for shredding but i like Michael for his Spandex approach to the world of widdlers, he never lost the faith and he never ever hung up his cod peice. Respect.  |

| Whatever Michael plays can be considered to be 'Shredding' like you say, its very fast playing/picking. |

Yeah on the 4th page, Zakk's in the top 5 in my book. Some times I think people just don't like him out of envy or something. Picking up a guitar at 15 and playing for Ozzy at 19, I think there are what, 0 people that have done something like that besides him. No one is realy talking about current hero's like the late Dimebag Darrel, one mentino of John Petruccie(how ever it's spelled) Alexi Laiho, and Not much on Randy Rhoads, or Toni Iommi and he had fake finger tips, and frankly invented heavy metal. Glad to see Micheal Angelo Bato was noticed. |

We can't forget johnny marr from the smiths -he shyed away from doing solos but that was his appeal.
mark knophlor is also a ledgend in a different context.
jerry garcia- now theres a gutarist.
This is a corny one but i always thought Prince to be under-rated.  |

| Prince?? thats pushing it a bit, he's very mediocre, on the same level as Noel Gallagher, look at the post heading it says '15 Best Guitarists' i can think of a couple of thousand that come before Prince, including myself! |
