who has the best guitar tone?

[shred-dog]

iwould have to say GEORGE LYNCH on back for the attack and the lynch mob albums !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a close 2nd would be ME!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Marinblues]

Robben Ford.

 

[ex-250]

hetfield! well....except stanger

 

[Gearjoneser]

Joe Perry. He navigates his arsenal like a surgeon looking for
the proper utensil.

I have respect for guys with one signature tone like SRV,
but Joe Perry is the King of Gear and the King of Tones.

 

[TheProphet]

Glad both me and GJ represented Perry ... I still haven't heard a bad tone out of that band. Might have a few 'questionable' songs (Think Armagedon), but never a bad tone.

teppei teranshi from thrice

 

[green_insomniac]

Hendrix, Adam Jones of Tool and ME! (Just kidding. Mine sux!)

 

[tone4days]

eric johnson is missing from the list ... so is larry carlton ...

even placing aside the word 'best' and replacing it with 'favorite', i couldnt pick ... although SRV would be very close to the top

cheers,
t4d

I recently saw them live and I wasn't impressed with his tone from the Recto. His Bogner tone from the albums is amazing though. Vaux had a great tone with their oranges though!

 

[yes-fan]

steve howes clean tone on syberian khatru

 

[fenderiarhs]

Brian May of Queen and David Gilmour

 

[brisk]

I've never heard anyone has better tone than Jeff Beck.

 

[sgstrat]

other: Peter Green

honorable mentions to: Eric Johnson (especially with his ES-335), and,
Ronnie Earl

 

[jetjoe002]

I think Eric Johnson should be up there.
I voted for SRV, but in the way of most exciting/versitile/changing? Joe Satch dominates.

how can i edit the poll?

i'd like to add, jimi, and eric.

 

[ex-250]

dave mustaine on the "rude awakening" live album...possibly my favorite tone ever

 

[casblah]

Pepper Keenan

Another vote for Pep.

 

[midnite_man]

Absolutely!

:notworthy :notworthy
