Eric Clapton
Right on, Eric. I have been playing guitar for quite a while and decided to make a post dedicated to my favorite guitarists. These are the guys who without them I never would have picked up a guitar in my life and I don't know what I would do if that happened. So I will post pictures below of my idols/influences and some of the coolest people to ever walk the earth.
Jimi Hendrix... one of the greatest ever and I always love the way he can mix physcidelica with blues. A straight up genius and one of my all time favorites.
Keith Richards...The most elegantly wasted man and probably the coolest. To me he is the epitome of rock n' roll. He has probably had the most influence on me than any other musician.
Jimmy Page...One of the most influential guitarists of all time. He invented the double neck guitar and would play his guitar with a violin bow. His skill level is unbelievable.
Eric Clapton AKA God...Clapton is considered one of the best of all time. He has a very bluesy sound (which I love) and is completely self taught.
Bob Dylan...You are probably wondering why I put Bob Dylan on this list since he isn't known for his technical skills. I put him on my list because he was so influential and he was the one that turned me onto rock n' roll so I couldn't leave him out.
David Gimour...In my opinion David is one of the most underrated guitarists so I had to give him his props. Plus I love Pink Floyd and the first song I ever learned was Wish You Were Here which is one of my all time favorite song.
I know that I have left out some important people but I don't want this post to be to big so I will make another list in the future so I have not forgotten them. please comment and tell me what you think.
