Most Underated Guitar Players

[RodCannon]

Angus has never impressed me very much technically, but he has so much feel and expression, I love listening to him anyway.

I think this is what it's all about......The feel and expression.....Angus sold alot of albums too....

[Frigo89]

It's good to see some fellow metal guys appreciating Frank Marino

he was/is a BADASS player, and can play any style and kick ass at it

Some very valid mentions!!!

Jeff Loomis..short lived GW section but too busy..never on cover. He's been the metal KING of shred..IMO

*Uli Roth..his playing/influence speak for themselves.. fuggums.

Magnus Karlsson..who?

Jorn Viggo Lofstad...who?

Olaf Lenk..who?

Mike Romeo...some know him

The Amott bros..what a team!!!

*Frank Marino..shredding like nobody's biz in the 70's. He intense fire, feel, speed, emotion..that went unoticed by most..and is a "Wayne's World" joke.

My main picks would be Uli Roth and Frank Marino..what do have to do to get a major prop by a publication. They influenced so many and been shredding their fingers to the bone since 1971..fuggums

Hell yeah, It was 1978 I was baptized by Mahogony Rush Live, VH I, and already loving Sabbath..

ummm..the very reason why I play. I still "air guitar" to that album. Even tho I play metal, I took alot from that guy!!!

That's funny, I was searching Greg Howe vids earlier today and came across that. Kinda weird, but hey, it pays the bills! Just like him touring with Michael Jackson too.

He can't be that "underrrated". Mnay in the underground and mainstream played with him.

That's the way it should be..I THINK!!

Mine are:
Brian Robertson
Scott Gorham
Paul Stanley
Neil Giraldo (Already mentioned but should be again)
Brad Gillis (Speak Of The Devil Fuckin' KILLED)
Pete Willis
Ian Crichton (Saga)

Ditto on Ric Emmet

I learned so much from Triumph in the 70's and 80's...
I love Canadian trio's...also USA (ZZ Top)

Total shock live....

Billy Squire

Also,
Frampton was dissed too much, good blues player

[Cygnus X1]

Judas Priest

Glenn Tipton...

Check out that Hamer he usually played...

It's a Phantom A5. I acquired one, loved the tone (triple humbucker bridge, single coil neck),
but never saw another until I watched VH1 Classic and saw him playing one on several vids and concerts.

Kewl....
