[Ron Jeremy]

Vai easily smashes this group

 

[HevyDevy]

Bloody hell, Vai and Petrucci together again?

So hard to pick but I have to go Vai.

The man is a genius (so is Petrucci)

 

[Ron Jeremy]

I like Petrucci, think he is awesome, however Vai is just Vai, the guy is the most elegant guitarist i have ever seen, makes it look so easy.

 

[Matt23]

Stevie Vai

 

[HevyDevy]

Three people voted Hetfield? Are you serious?

:lol:

 

[Nuke]

Brian May is leading the way so far ... as he should too.

 

[Eelectrica]

Hetfield is now beating Petrucci?! :crazy:
Ye gods.

 

[Twizzle]

I must be the only guy who's heard Jeff Beck

 

[madunit]

Brian May sh*ts all over this group.

 

[magpie_man]

only two votes for jeff beck? what a fkn disgrace.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Brian May sh*ts all over this group.

In all honesty Unit, May couldn't do half the stuf on the guitar that Vai could do, honestly. May is a great distinctive guitarist with some nice lead stuff but the reality it is a pop gun compared to what Vai could do:lol:

Vai is so far ahead of the rest it is incredible, if you knew the technical side of playing you'd realise how much better he is, however naturally peoples bias will make them select their favourites.

He's crap compared to the rest, next you'll say George Harrison was one of the best:roll:

...including you're own.

Never before have I seen someone so far up on their high horse when it comes to music. I'm surprised you can even see us from way up there.:roll:

I'm not being biased, simply Vai is a better guitarist, prove me wrong.

lol at high horse:lol: i just know what talent is, many people don't particulary non-players. They read mags like Rolling Stones and then assume they're greats when the reality is they were not.

 

[Non Terminator]

A definate hard group, will probably pick Petrucci on bias, although high respect for Vai. Hard to beat someone you've seen live lol.

Well whats the f**king point of having a poll? We should have just asked you who the greatest ever is, saved us all some time. :crazy:

No the point of the poll shows tells us everybodys favourite guitarist, not neccsarily who the best is.

And Eddie and Vai are the greatest ever, no one knows as much about the instrument as these two blokes.

 

[carcharias]

these Polls are flawed.

There is no voting scale.

How the fug can duanne allman be compared to Satch....or Bellamy to George Benson?

Flawed I say .

Why dont you just make it a poll between page and hendrix?

pick the most famous...he wins.

 

[HevyDevy]

:lol:

I'm with you Carch.

If Hendrix wins this thing I'm jumping out the window
