Best Guitarist Of the 2000's

Slash. He was better in the 90's and late 80's though riff wise.

ehhh slash is way over-rated

synyster gates and zakky vengeance are quite high in my opinion. saw them live at twickenham when i went to see iron maiden and caught zakkys pick. was really chuffed considering i was in a crowd of about 10000 people. their harmonising guitar solos are also pretty sweet. so yeah theyre high rankings for 21st century material.

zakk is just random pentatonics, with loads of wah, + tapping, plus harmonics.

could say the same for many other guitarists but that still doesnt mean he isnt good at guitar...

wouldnt slash be more from the 80's?

i voted alexi, cuz hes one of my 3 favorite guitarists of all time.

with this list I cant give the answer. Kirk hammett is there, but no Joe Satriani who teached Kirk... Who Rock the most? Angus... not in the list... Laiho is easily best of these...

ok first...how come the list cannot be added to? A decade had more than just 5 guitar players.

Second, best how? Best guitar player is kind of vague isn't it. Best for what reasons.

I am boycotting this poll!!!!

theyre all like that for some reason

Jari Maenpaa from wintersun is also amazing. John Pettrucci isnt there either. and i would say Hammet is more from the 80's and 90's. in this decade he has 1 record he actually has played in i think

Matt Bellamy.

I think they're pretty cool, although I don't listen to Avenged Sevenfold much. I think some of the stuff they can do with sweeping and that is really awesome. I just think they dress like ass-holes, but that's beside the point really. Hendrix and Page wore funky clothes too, and they're considered greats! :P

also Dave Mustaine kicks Kirks butt!

Guthrie Govan.
