Conspiracy Theory: We all disagree with this list.
@alickonesimusvweza789
"Honorable mention" to Chuck is an insult to Rock n Roll
@zendisciple3737
Al Di Meola / Alex Lifeson / Albert King / Steve Vai / George Harrison / Rory Gallagher / Angus Young...all of these MUST be on the list.
@Mozza-g2m
I remember seeing an interview with Eric Clapton once saying that he'd brought Jimmy Hendrix a beautiful left-handed strat and was going to give it to him after one of the shows but the left-hand Jimmy died before Clapton could give it to him. Which left Clapton with a left-handed guitar he couldn't play. RIP Jimmy but your legacy still lives on and inspires millions of guitarist around the world.
@dangerzone012
Kirk Hammett? Stephen Stills?? George Harrison??? Slash???? Jeff Beck????? Did you guys even do your homework on this one?!
@MikeyStoneking
It kind of sucks that Mick Mars, Slash, Angus Young, and Jeff Healey couldn't even garner an honorable mention.
@jermis3762
As soon as I saw Santana at 20, I knew this wasn’t serious
@geiroveeilertsen7112
I have to agree that this list is put together to get people riled up in the comments, because every single guitarist I know (and will ever meet) would say that Mark Knopfler should be waay higher than Billy Gibbons on such a list. Billy is impressive as a strictly blues-guitarist, but Mark is much more versatile and technical
@aewfandom349
Rest in Peace Eddie Van Halen
@elturko6847
Jeff Beck and George Harrison should've at least gotten an honorable mention
@XxSkydog71xX
Proof that Duane Allman, Dickey Betts, Johnny Winter, John Fogerty, Joe Walsh, Albert King, Jeff Beck, Muddy Waters, and other legends are criminally under credited and under appreciated.

@mirabellestarr7679
It's criminal that Jeff Beck is not here. He's on a different soundwave altogether. He is completely original and actually, he is too good for your silly lists!! EDIT Thank you for the likes. I wrote this several months ago, and now very recently Jeff has passed away.😪 I find it sad that all these youtube channels ignored him in their "best guitarist" or "most influential guitarist lists" but since he has died, have suddenly remembered him, making tributes!! Boo to them making money off him!!✌
@floughreydude88__
The fact Slash, John Frusciante and Angus Young, 3 extremely influential guitarist (and two of them they used in the intro) didn’t even make the cut is an absolute outrage.
@BMSUCKS
Missed: John Frusciante George Harrison Slash Jeff Beck Johnny Greenwood Kirk Hammett
@jerrycaplan
Would put Hendrix, Clapton, Page, Gilmour, as my top guitarists. My humble opinion
@russellcurtis2501
To be honest, Keith Richards has the advantage over the rest of the list in that he has been playing about 300-400 years.
@chapibermejo1315
Watchmojo: Do you agree with our picks?? Everyone: No
@shavewithdave5339
It’s very difficult to put a list like this together - you’re never going to satisfy anyone - but Glenn Campbell was a guitar genius and of course a key member of the famous Wrecking Crew.
