Best Guitar Player..in your opinion Options

[Valo666]

Im curious who people think the best guitar players of our time are?..IE like mid 80s + as most people on the site are mid 20s or younger.

My vote is a 3 way tie. I would have to say Ingwie Malmsteen, Zakk Wylde, or Alexi Laho

If you have never heard any of them before, here are links to videos of them playing.

Malmsteen playing "Far Beyond the Sun"
Crazy Malmsteen...watch all of it

Zakk Wylde who is an insperation for me. He was a little scronney kid growing up who got picked on all the time for being different..like i was. Then just found somethin he liked alot, like listening to Ozzy when he was a kid, played guitar and idolized Tony Iomi and just kept playing. Then when he was 19, Ozzy was touring the states looking for a guitar player for his band, and Wylde auditioned and has been playing with Ozzy since 87 or so.

Alexi Laho is the guitarist/lead singer from C.O.B. ...or if your not into the european metal thing, Children of Bodom. new age metal band from Finland. This clip is from a side project he did with some one from Dimmu Borgir...if you dont know them..dont ask..lol

Synergy - Suicide by my side *viewer discreation advised*

wait for the solo about 3 min into the song.


Your votes please...
