I have always thought of Santana as mine what is yours?
John Frusciante!!
My grandfather! Followed closely by me!
Bob Mould… (Husker Du/Sugar)
..closely followed by: Roger Mcguinn (The Byrds)
Hñ¼sker Dñ¼ is awesome. . . the guitar and singing are pretty abrasive, but once you get used to it. . . they rock http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-TccVzt0gU
This is hard for me to answer. . . favorite guitarist. . .
It’d probably be one of the following:
Roger Miller (Mission of Burma)
Ian Mackaye (Fugazi)
Guy Picciotto (Fugazi, Happy Go Licky, Rites of Spring, One Last Wish)
Andy Gill (Gang of Four)
Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth)
Damon Che (Thee Speaking Canaries)
Ash Bowie (Polvo)
Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath)
Adrian Belew (mainly for his work with David Bowie, Brian Eno, and the Talking Heads)
Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine)
Tom Verlaine (Television)
I don’t know. . . it’s just so hard to answer. I like all these different styles.
J Mascis
hard to say…
well i have a big boycrush on Steven Wilson, but that’s because i see him as a great musician altogether – not just a guitarist
then i’d probably go with Dave Gilmour… i learned alot from listening to his stuff
then Steve Vai i think
Too many, but if I had to pick one I always enjoy listening to it would be Sir David Gilmour.
Rowland S. Howard (the Birthday Party/ Crime and the City Solution). I also like Blixa Bargeld and David Gilmour.
Edge. Andy Summers. Robin Guthrie. Kevin Shields. Archer Prewitt. – guitarists who approach their art more like landscape painting.
I also love the fancier finger-work of Lindsay Buckingham, James Honeyman-Scott, and Elliot Easton.

Thanks for all the posts guys. so far i havent seen any guitar player that i dont see fit to be a favorite of any person.
Jeff Beck
There is such a gap between this guy and everybody else it’s not funny…
He was a space alien, so he doesn’t count.
