My Personal Top Ten Guitarists of All Time

1.    Jimi Hendrix -- the one true "god of guitar".

2.    Eric Clapton -- Another of the guitar playing Mt. Rushmore.

3.    Jimmy Page -- Lead guitar of the greatest rock band ever.  Need I say more?

4.    Stevie Ray Vaughn -- an awesome talent who died too early like Jimi.

5.    Al DiMeola -- One of the most versatile guitar players ever.  From rock to jazz to flamenco.

6.    BB King -- King of the Blues, nuff said.

7.    Eddie Van Halen -- has a Wow Factor all his own.

8.    Wes Montgomery -- Top of the list of jazz guitar.

9.    Terry Kath -- highly under rated lead guitar for the band Chicago until his death in 1978.  When given the spotlight, he never failed to wow.

10.    Duane Allman/Dickey Betts -- These two guitarists were the signature sound of the Allman Brothers Band.  Really can't separate one from the other.
