Top 10: The Hard Rock Chick’s favorite modern day guitarists

by hardrockchick [about 2 years, 9 months ago.]

Some of them are technically amazing, some of them are really fun to watch, and several are both…and many of them are highly underrated. These are all post-Slash era guitarists.

Tom Morello/Rage Against The Machine, Audioslave, The Nightwatchman

Jerry Cantrell/Alice In Chains

Kim Thayil/Soundgarden

Robin Finck/NIN, GNR (the video is proof that he should keep playing the guitar and never, ever open his mouth)

Zakk Wylde/Black Label Society, Ozzy

John 5/Manson, Zombie

Tim Skold/KMFDM, Manson

Aaron North/The Icarus Line, NIN

Dean DeLeo/STP, Army of Anyone

Wes Borland/Limp Bizkit, Black Light Burns

Genre(s): Lists

Good list. Strongly agree with the first 3.

What about John Fruiscante (spell?) of Red Hot Chili Peppers, maybe make it to #11?

Dave Navarro at #20?
