1 I've been a huge Ramones fan since Rocket To Russia, but c'mon! Three-chord Johnny at #16 while Frank Zappa's at #45?!
And Lou Reed and Neil Young shouldn't be on the list at all. I'm a fan of both, but they're NOT impressive guitarists!

2 Yep, and where's George Benson and Al DeMeola? Joni Mitchell? C'mon...

3 Joni's on the list! somewhere around #75 or so..

4 Sorry, I was complaining that she was on the list, while leaving out others

5 Jack White doesn't deserve to be on there. And where the hell is Johnny Marr of The Smiths? Damn.

6 i think that the exclusion of g3 and malmsteen is very sad. i mean what about paul gilbert, john petrucci, vinnie moore, kenny wayne sheperd etc. These guys are the gods of the guitar. Jimi Hendrix just abuses the guitar.so i do hope that there will be a review thanks man

7 that list is real bullshit....hendrix should be at number one, i have no doubt about that, in fact i agree completely with the top four except for BB King who has been playing the same blues solos for about 40 years.........Jimmy Page should be number 5 at least and Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhoads should at least break the top ten and their are also a lot of people that have no business on the countdown(such as Kurt Cobain, Johnny Ramone, Jack White, and Jerry Garcie even though i love him)

8 Few if any of them belong on the list. There's not a real attempt to look at all genres of guitar playing, and most of the "greats" are rock guitarists. Frankly none of them can hold a candle to the acoustic/country blues guitarists, with Blind Blake and Rev. Gary Davis on the top of ANY coherent list of great and best guitarists. The list is totally nuts.
