"There is no such thing as the greatest of all-time guitar players. There are guitar players who are great at what they do." Eddie Van Halen

[Knome-Ansland]

"There is no best. It's music theory, not music fact." -Eddie Van Halen

Eddie said in an interview that it was Alex Lifeson and I have to agree… rush had 9 stellar albums by 1984 and after 10 more consistently good albums his creativity and expressive playing is impressive

Many great guitar players, I saw Stevie Ray Vaughan twice and he was the best I had ever seen live.

[josiahlong]

Dimebag was like the evil nephew of Eddie van Halen. His sound was so powerful and sharp

[Pigotti]

Scrolling through seeing no one say Randy Rhoads makes me sad. Like hendrix his life was cut too short but those first 2 ozzy albums he played in were absolute masterpieces.

[mattpeacock]

If you asked Eddie, he'd probably say Jeff Beck.

- Eddies own words. - Allan Holdsworth

Facts. His rhythm parts were every bit as good as his leads.

[stlbryson]

what most people seem to forget is all the great music Eddie created, not just his virtuosity. Every album he made had some of the most interesting and fun guitar parts ever devised. Change my mind ;)

[asimmanna]

Jimi Hendrix left the chat
edit: He literally revolutionized guitar, even if he doesn't play crazy stuff. It's just my opinion, every guitarist is good in their own styles.

Gary Moore. I’m willing to die on that hill.

[exoendo]

Eddie and Dime are my 2 personal favorites.. RIP to them both

[mikefisher]

Eddy was my hero for the longest time ..That happy smile and fun summer time music ..Just awesome

[Joey.Darkwoods-Studio]

No doubt... it's not just the leads and tapping etc... his rhythm playing and all the little nuances in his playing that goes under the radar. Legend.

[periachi]

Just reading the title I said EVH. He is the king.

[steveo]

I agree that no one can ever be named GOAT. However, I wanna shout out Nuno. Homie ain't get enough ❤. Just wow!

[A_Final_Hit]

60s was Hendrix, 70s was Page, 80s was EVH, and in the 90s it was Dimebag.

[larryoneill]

David Gilmour. His playing makes your soul scream in ecstasy

[davelazar]

I love lots of guitar players but Ed's sound and style was just so unique.
