The Top 100 Guitarists


The Top 100 Guitarists of all time? An article originally published in Rolling Stone in 2003 named a list of the 100 greatest guitar players of all time. The top ranked guitarist was Jimi Hendrix, followed by Duane Allman, BB King, Eric Clapton, and Robert Johnson (of Delta blues fame). Any time you put a top 100 lists together, especially of musicians, there bound to be some "discussion".

Guitar Players Toolbox has a page where you can indicate your views of who are the top guitarists of all time. I personally like Neil Young, but he's listed as # 83 on the list!

Here's a video of the Top 15 guitarists. Check it out and leave your input!
