Name your 3 favorite guitar players.....

Since Frank the new and improved (more sensitive) comic insult dog started the best singers here goes.
Name your 3 favorite guitar players of all times. I've limited mine to rock but all genres are welcome (with the exception of rap, oh I forgot rap doesn't use musical instruments, drum machines don't count.) (forum members should take into consideration not just playing ability but writing ability and innovation.)

1) Eddie Van Halen

2) Randy Rhoads

3) Brian May

Agree with your list, but if it's limited to three I'd delete either Randy or Brian (probably Randy, but close) and insert Jimmy Hendrix

[RushDog]

Pete Townshend
James Burton
Brian Setzer

good pick, you are forgetting something in your sign off message.

Setzer is a good one. Great at 'making songs his own' by putting that 'Rockabilly' flavor into a lot of songs he does. Guess he's still a 'Stray Cat' at heart after all.

And I've changed my sig enough lately. I'll give it a rest for a while.......

Keith is Hot, Hot, Hot

[X1TX]

Santana, Page, Hendrix would be my top three. Followed maybe by Eddie VH, Roads, Angus Young.
