Underrated shredder thread.

I'm a big fan of Jani Liimatainen from Sonata Arctica - or well before he drank himself out of the gig. But he's a fantastic player though.

Guthrie Govan is great !!

Reb Beach is underrated in my opinion.

He is one of my favourite guitarists but i wouldn't call him a shredder because of his tendency to write actual songs rather than instrumentals otherwise was this thread would get messy when i start naming every decent 80s guitarist...george,reb,luke,vito,warren etc etc

I don't know about "shredders" but I've always thought Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson were underrated.

Is it possible to underrate two guys who are responsible for surely one of metal's signature features?!

I think so. How often do you hear of them? Sure, we know them. Most do not. Even though they hear them on the radio all the time.

I'd say Adrian Smith and Dave Murray and Glen and KK get more recognition as dual guitarists than Goram and Roberson do.

A buddy of mine only likes the Gary Moore era Lizzy. I will admit, Moores solo on Still In Love With You might be one of the best ever.

I prefer the heavier Thin Lizzy a la Thunder and Lightning

yes, but then john sykes is a legend anyways

Hmm... maybe Django Reinhardt or that fat brazillian guy on Youtube. Surely, inside almost every underrated shredder lies an overrated guitarist.
