If Kirk would toss the Wah pedal, I'd consider him.

Ahhh yes, Doyle Doyle. I'm sure you can hear the SRV influence in him...it was especially evident during SOYCD of ITF.

Re: APFFN's top 25 guitarist of all times
I'm not a guitar freak, so I cannot be arsed to compile a list of 25 guitarists, let alone 100, so I'm going to put the lights just on some of my favourites, ok?


1- David Gilmour

2- Jimi Hendrix
3- Eric Clapton
4- Mark Knopfler

and in no particular order:


Steve Howe
Jeff Beck
Joe Satriani
Keith Richards (hey, those riffs....)
Jimmy Page
Steve Vai
Marc Ribot
B.B. King
Franco Mussida


Oh and BTW I don't care much for technique, it's all about feeling for me.
