Well it looks as though Mr Saul Hudson is considered the best guitarist!
Personally, I’m not too surprised. After all who else can carry off sporting ungodly long hair, and a dodgy looking top hat all while having a Les Paul swinging at his knees? No one! That’s who! So, all hail the Guitars ‘n’ Guitarists 'Best Guitarist Poll' Winner: Slash!
Slash first came to prominence through Guns'N'Roses and their first five albums. He has appeared in other projects including his recent solo album simply titled Slash: R & F’n R. The other notable band he was/is involved with is Velvet Revolver. Their long hiatus is appearing to be more like a ‘permanent vacation’ though so don’t expect any new releases from VR.
Slash’s style of play is based largely on the 'Blues' scale, which is essentially the Minor Pentatonic with an added flat fifth, now if that sounds a little too technical all it basically means his style is rooted in classic rock (Stones, Rory Gallagher, Deep Purple, etc…).
As Slash was voted #1, I’d like to find out what kind of guitar music you’d like to read about, should it be all classic rock? Indie? NWOBHM?
Let me know by voting in the new poll.
Thanks in advance!
James
