I voted for Hackett, but I have much respect for Martin. He played some kick-ass guitar in his prime.
Prog fan since 1974.

I've gone for Hackett, but respect Barre too. Now, it might be a different matter if we were talking about the marimba!

Steve for me. Martin is good but Steve has all his solo work.

I had to go with Hackett, even though I prefer Tull to Genesis for the most part.

The tournament doesn't indicate whether you're voting for the theoretically best guitarist or your favourite. ;P


Agree

PS: Barre is not techincally limited at all!

Glad Barre is keeping it respectable.  He truly rocks and has done so for a good long time.  But Hackett... I can't go against my heart.

Although Hackett is no hack with an axe, Barre sets the bar for me in this round.  Martin it is.

Sorry, but it's Hackett by huge margin, even though I like Tull.

Barre ! Never got into Genesis... Barre can play some real mean guitar and really gentle and soft. He's great, he can play much more than only prog.
