Which Guitar Player Got You Hooked?

Metal Ken · 04-17-2008, 02:36 AM

Tony Iommi. I wanted to be like him for the longest time

FYP666 · 04-17-2008, 02:37 AM

Michael Amott from Arch Enemy. His style using wide vibrations and wah pedal, and, of course, the leads. He has written many good songs and i've been hooked to Arch Enemy as far as i remember.

John Kempainen from The Black Dahlia Murder. Since i got Miasma album i've been hooked. He uses a lot of traditional tremolo picking and almost no sweeping and tapping. And he has Finnish last name

Tonny Iommi, David Gilmour, Adam Jones.

satch and vai,jason and marty,james and kirk

Makelele · 04-17-2008, 05:43 AM

Hetfield and Hammett, Mustaine and Friedman, and later John Petrucci, Michael Romeo, Yngwie Malmsteen and Paul Gilbert.

Trey Azagthoth and some other death metal guitarists. I think.

amonb · 04-17-2008, 06:41 AM

Jerry Cantrell. He could (still can) play with a bit of flash, but is primarily a songwriter as much influenced by Elton John and Lindsay Buckingham as Tony Iommi.

And fuck anyone who doesn't think the riffs in "Them Bones" or "We Die Young" don't rule

Good call.

That solo in "Purple Rain" rules hard man... don't matter how simple it may be.

Go to 3:38 for it...

I wanted to be a bassist, at first, but then I switched to the guitar.

It was in 1991, Guns´n´Roses was still huge and the Grunge stuff was picking up. For me it was Slash in the beggining, although I don´t really identify with him nowadays I realize the importance he had for me and for a lot of people at the time.

Slash started it, but Jerry Cantrell came next, and I´m still a HUGE fan.

Jimmy page made me want to pick up a guitar.
Eddie Van halen made me want to get as good a s I could.
Van halen really hooked me into wanting to do nothing but play all day.
