So, we all know you dig Guthrie or you wouldn't be here. Name your other faves. I'll start with a little list of my own.
Jeff Beck
Mike Landau
Pat Metheny
Scott Henderson
Jimi Hendrix
David Gilmour (Pink Floyd)
Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin)
Joe Satriani
Steve Vai
Gary Moore
John McLaughlin
Allan Holdsworth
SRV
John Scofield
Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple)
That's just off the top of my head, but I guess that means that these are the guys I'd want to call up on my iPod most of the time. Gilmour, Page, and Blackmore, to me, were more about the band than the players themselves. Didn't really care for anything else they've done outside of those iconic bands.
at need to indentify the bands of Jimmy Page and Dave Gilmour :p _________________ i'm going to rip off your beard nail it to a frisbie and throw it over a rainbow...

Exactly. The works of those icons outside of those bands really weren't all that good. _________________ Ed Yoon

anyone heard of James Muller? He is an Australian jazz/fusion guitarist... i saw him live recently after hearing my friend go on about him for ages, and he is amazing. Very similar sound to John Scofield but with more chops and he is quite young too... i saw a bit of guthrie's playing in him actually (Guthrie's stuff with the fellowship) _________________ "Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast"
