You also have to realize that he is only 15. I'm surprised he didn't put Miley Cyrus' lead guitarist on there.

That is subjective to opinion. There are many greats that have different styles. Jeff Beck, Eddie Van Halen, Slash, Joe Satriani, and David Gilmour would all answer this question with Les Paul

wait til the fast part here

Les Paul Chasing Sound

Eddie Van Halen 1988

David Gilmour 1988

This


I voted for Angus just because I like his style of playing. Going by pure talent Buckethead definitely blows them all out of the water, but out of the choices listed probably Eddie is the best.

On a side note, connecting music to HS basketball. Did you see that Bruce Hornsby's son is a starting guard at Oak Hill Academy? Keith Hornsby

I realize its only a ten person poll, but how are Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton left off.

My vote would go to Clapton. But I love his music as a whole so much that I am slightly biased.
