The guitar is their weapon of choice. In this WatchMojo REDUX video join us as we count down our picks for the top 10 guitarists of all time.
A WatchMojo (REDUX) video is a new bonus feature that re-features an older video in a new way. Either multiple videos have been combined, new entries have been added, or the video has just plain been improved. Hopefully a REDUX video finds a new and bigger audience!

I would definitely have put SRV much higher on the list, but at least he was on it i guess
No buddy-guy
Jeff Beck #1
This isn't most influential it's greatest. SRV should be at least top 5
ANGUS YOUNG? HONORABLE MENTION? BS!
Most of the honorable mentions should have been top 5s….
Ridicolous this top 10
Ritchie Blackmore ??
What about Ritchie Blackmoore? Just listen to "Burn".
My Top 10
10. Eddie Van Halern
9. B.B King
8. Pete Townshend
7. Keith Richards
6. David Gilmour
5. Stevie Ray Vaughan
4. Chuck Berry
3. Eric Clapton
2. Jimi Hendrix
1. Jimmy Page
Honarable Mention
Brian May
Randy Rhoads
Jeff Beck
John Entwistle
John Paul Jones
Pete Townsend shouldf be in top 10 so should Keith Richards
JHE……. FUCK YEAH.
allan holdsworth ????
Cher atkins?
Not even a mention of Jason Becker? Are you serious?
steve vai?
I would have at least put Nile rodgers in the honorable mention
What the fuck?!Where is Tony fucking Iommy,the man who invented heavy metal genre with his demonic riffs,a whole army of guitarists were influenced by him,he made a revolution in music…
Are you telling me the guitar God himself Slash isn't on here how actually how
Although he delivered the best guitar solo of all time in Stairway to Heaven, i still agree that Jimmy Page should be Jimi Hendrix
Where's George Harrison? Get outta here
John Mayer? Slash? John Fruscianti? This is bullshit.
Alex Skolnick, I'm not sure on the spelling, he was the lead player for Testament. The dude is great. Jeff Loomis is crazy good and anyone that's ever played lead for Megadeth. Those are my personal favorites, and I know no one cares:)
Their list they made here? I know for sure Eddie Van Halen changed music and I've heard a lot of famous guitar players say Jimi Hendrix was doing things no one else was. Dimebag got a honorable mention, he changed the metal riff for sure and influenced tons of players and his leads were great……
Fun stuff
No Keith Richards? Unbelievable!
Good list. The people hating on slash and calling him an overrated piece of shit, get a grip. His music is going to live on for far longer than you're puny little opinions will. He has done some memorable solo's. Although I'm a huge Gn'R fan, and I also agree he doesn't compare to the legends on this list, but to the people who are calling him shit, get a life cunts. it's easy to hate, harder to be #1 on the charts for that long. He's an icon, and his solo's still evoke emotions 20 years later. He isn't shit, you're shit :/
why isn't Rory Gallagher on this list? even jimi Hendrix thought he was the best.
Completely subjective but…
10. Peter Green
9. Duane Allman
8. BB King
7. David Gilmour
6. Eric Clapton
5. Stevie Ray Vaughan
4. Jeff Beck
3. Eddie Van Halen
2. Jimmy Page
1. Jimi Hendrix
where's John Frusciante?
No Alex Lifeson?
