Can't believe that Steve Hackett's not on that poll.

(So I voted for Gilmour...)

There's no Steve Hackett.

So I voted David Gilmour, because his guitarplaying sounds a lot like John Mitchell's (Arena!!)

Never mind Hackett, why am i the first to vote for Frank Zappa? No offense to all the Genesis fans here, but Hackett (although a good player) doesnt even compare with guitarists like Robert Fripp, Steve Howe and the great Frank Zappa. But of course, thats just my personal opinion.

Where is Hackett?????????????????????????

Out of those choices,I pick Steve Howe.

You have all these guitarists from classic prog bands but throw in Adam Jones of Tool.

I love Tool and like Adam Jones,but he has atotally different style than the rest of those guitarists.

Ed Wynne from the Ozric Tentacles is a highly underrated guitarists.  His playing is simply amazing.
