This poll goes to eleven, to paraphrase Spinal Tap. Wink
 
This additional poll includes some of the glaring omissions from Guitarist Magazine's list of Top 100 Guitar Heroes. 
 
The Top 2 guitarists from this poll will go through to the final face-off round. 
 
Feel free to suggest any of your favourite guitarists missing from Guitarist Magazine's Top 100 list which I'll edit into this poll.

That's a tough choice on that list......went with Duane, a fave from the old days..... but Fripp, Hillage, Mason, Taylor, Thompson, etc are all great.

I choose Gary Green here, although I could also pick Andy Latimer. Gary Green is underrated.

Nice one.  
I wouldn't be that superlative about Roine, but yes, he generally doesn't get his due and he does at least deserve to be in the conversation.
