I'm assuming that everyone in this community would have Randy right near the top of the list as far as their favorite guitarists go. With me, he's clearly my #1 favorite of all time. If he's your favorite, who is your second favorite and if he isn't your favorite, who is?

Well. randy deff is my fav guitarist. But if i had to pick my second fav, it would prob be Adrian Smith (Iron Maiden) or K.K. Downing (Judas Priest)

Cool. How do you go about picking Adrian Smith over Dave Murray or K.K. over Glenn Tipton, because in both cases, don't both guitarists play lead?

[randyisgod15]

ya, but they both have a definitive style to them, adrian is more melodic, and i like K.K.s solos better then Glens.

Randy is up there, As you said.
But Slash from Guns N' Roses has always had more of an effect on me then any other Guitarist I listen too, Guns N' Roses was Great, And Slash's Snakepit kicked some ass. Velvet Revolver, Fuckin owns, I went to there concert before their record was released, and It was one of the best i've been too.
I also like the work of Izzy Stradlin, I just started getting into some of his muisc, and he does some really laid back Rock N' Roll, which we could all use once in awhile.

Saul Hudson does own.

Yeah, Randy is definetly at the top of my list. My favorite guitarist however is the late but great Dimebag Darrell. He fits into the same category as Randy, an enormously talented guitar player and wonderful person with untouchable style, and to have such ambitious ability taken away from the world at a young age. My heart does go out to Randy though, as he was taken many years younger than Darrell was.
