Chuck Schuldiner....I do not listen to Death as much as I used to, but man that guy really got me hooked. The Individual Thought Patterns album changed my life...

EVH is why I started playing... can't stand his stuff now.
Vai is my all time fav both in style and flare... a true showman.
But in the end, I dig Phil Collen's stuff. He can shred with the best of them. Anyone who here's me play can tell I listen to his stuff.
Playing PC guitars kinda gives it away a bit too. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
jeff loomis, amott brothers, chuck schuldiner for their solo work
EVH, tipton/downing, angus/malcom young, gary holt, john schaffer for their rhythm work.

Its funny you say that about EVH. I agree totally!!! I have a hard time listening to him now. I can only seem to dig the Sammy stuff. 5150 is still a good jam.
After thinking about it, and picking ONE guitarist like the title implies, I will have to say when you take away vocals, songs as a whole and focus on guitar playing, I have to pick Lynch every time. I think of all the big names and the competition is TOUGH. but I have to always go back to GL on my list of the best. He just had an amazing style and nobody sounded like him, he just had his own thing goin on. So cast my vote for Mr. Scary [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
