    Beck, Page, SRV, Steve Vai, Stanley Gordon, Al Dimeola, all are better EVH. Vai probably the best.
    Bass players: Les Claypool, Getty Lee, Flea, Steve Harris, Cliff Burton

    And don't bother arguing my list, I respect the opinion of REAL musicians, ones who've made a living doing this and even played with a few of rhe greats listed above.
    ,

    um ok, so I am a real musician and there is not way any of those guys are better than EVH, ESPECIALLY Vai, Gordon and Dimeola...all good players, but nto better. Good bye

    On your bass list, you forgot Billy Sheehan, but the list is up there...also it is Geddy Lee...I respect guy who know how to spell the names of their heroes.

    My phone must have corrected it. And I agree with Billy from Maiden love that guy. As far as your arguement about being a real musician not one guitarist I know would put Eddie at #1, top 10 sure, not #1.

    I know someone who played with EVH and Zakk Wylde, I value his opinion a bit more.

    Well Billy Sheehen was never in Maiden, that would be Steve Harris, another very good player and excellent writer. YOu must know some jealous players, because EVH is the king and you ask any player from 78 utnil now and they will almost always tell u that.

    Listen to their new album, I promise you will be blown away.

    I love me some Warren Haynes!!! Of course Dimebag Darrell was just well.....the best. I hear that he tried for years to buy Eddie VanHalen's red guitar with the stripes on it and he wouldn't sell it. Then when dimebag died, Eddie put it in his casket. Rumor??? who know's.... lol

    Buckethead freak here, this is a hard one though lol, what style? Yngwie Malmsteen is beast, Segovia, Rip Dimebag...Also what about bassists? They dont ever get any credit

    You've got great taste in guitarists. Except for Dimebag Darrell, I don't get that one. But Buckethead, Malmsteen, and Segovia are all titans. :smile:

    This is why you're a cool guy. EVH can run for Best Hair, but Beiber still kinda has him.

    I'm going to say EVH is 2nd and David Lee Roth is 1st. Eat it.
