My favourite is Jerry Cantrell but I voted Zakk Wylde.
Was going to go Malmsteen who is arguably the most talented but having seen Zakk a few times now - and met him on multiple occasions - I can't go past him. The guy can seriously play.
a very difficult group. I wanted to go with Wylde, or Slash, Wood, Billy Corgan, Malmsteen, however i feel that people underrate Cantrell's musicianship as they look at these comps and only seem to rate technical skill. Went with Jerry Cantrell.
I've got a vid of Gerry Cantrell playing live with Primus (Seas of Cheese)
will put it on the CD with the others for you
Listen to SRV play little wing.
I can't go past him.
