Ronnie Wood is one of the most underrated guitarists ever. His blues playing, especially his slide) is phenominal.

I struggled between Gibbons and Wood, but finally voted for Frampton. I could sense that even in a "b" poll he wasn't gonna get any love!

I voted for Gibbons, but I don't concider him a b-list player. Anybody who was described by Hendrix as " his favorite current guitarist " ain't exactly what I would call b-list. The man is more like the godfather of southern rock-blues.

What is your criteria to categorize these players as being "B list?" It seems pretty random and I wouldn't consider even half of the players in the poll to be anything less than top notch. Throwing out the B list part, I voted for Gibbons but Ron Wood is right up there with him.

I think by "b list" they mean to imply that the artist listed don't always get the credit there due.

 

In some cases thats more obvious than others, certainly Woods/ Izzy / Mars have lived in the shadows of larger personalities.

B listers? Are you serious? These guys are masters of their craft!

 

amen

most of these guys dont get there due credit

 

ex. guitar world/one has had EVH on the cover of there magazine 14 times...............

how many times have you seen joe satriani, page, clapton, hendrix, and wylde on the cover

 

then how many times have you seen say, ron wood on the cover???

 

 

these guys never get any credit, or limelight

 

 

and you guys know what guitarist i forgot to put on here

 

 

neal schon from journey

i voted izzy... but what aboout keith richards? (i'm sure i've seen him playing a lester, though his main guitar has always been a tele, and the poll didnt say "les paul player", just player).

 

another one you forgot is andy summers of the police... one of the greatest guitar players imo, and always open for new techniqes and technology.

 

sorry in both cases their main axes are teles.

 

EDIT: yes, you forgot neil schon... he even has his own paul (and a prety expensive one)

What songs did Izzy write? I thought Slash did most (if not all of) the writting...

 

actually slash almost never wrote a song for gnr... it was always izzy... wonder why things just fell appart when he left... hm...
