Nobody ever mentions Lita Ford.

Here stuff with Lemmy and Ozzy is good. And she did that video where she was all licking a block of ice...

I have a feeling that's not quite what you meant...

Lita Ford isn't a 'great' guitar player unless Mairi wanted to include her as a female entry so it wasn't a fraternity of male players. If that's the case, Nancy Wilson from Heart should be on the list, she's a fine musician, and my baby, Shawn Colvin plays with tunings that are so out there, its like she's mastered a dozen instruments on one guitar.

Robbie Robertson

I got Odelay and Midnite Vultures. He's a viber for sure. Seems to do what he wants.

That's not Jeff Beck, Apps.

Stephen Stills doesn't get near the credit he deserves.  I heard "Bluebird" the other day and he's amazing.  He's also got a great interplay with Neil Young on so many songs.

What about Pete Townshend, The Edge, Brian May, and David Gilmour? And does anyone even remember Stevie Ray Vaughan? I don't here his name much anymore.

She's some hair metal chick from the 80's. I hate her. That duet she did with Ozzy was his lowest moment. Made me wanna puke.

LOL, I was just listening to that song today! But Joan Jett is better. Yeah.

Plus, I think Lita kinda played up her sexuality to sell records. Joan oozed sexuality without trying.

does The Edge fall under the "not celebrated for being uncelebrated guitarists" thread, cause hes not here in the "uncelebrated guitarist" thread nor in the "celebrated guitarist" thread.

you cant deny his skill. and the fact that he never took actual lessons till like 92. even if you dont like U2, his skill as a guitarist is undeniably awesome

I think I mentioned The Edge and Stevie Ray Vaughn. Along with Pete Townshend, Brian May and David Gilmour. I will add George to that list. Not even Beatles fans really appreciate him.

George was a great guitarist, and im sorry i didnt realize you did mention the edge.

John's guitar skills weren't great. George definately had the guitar genes. perfect example of john's more rhymic guitar skills and not lead guitar, is Cold Turkey. thats an extremely easy guitar part in comparison to george's stuff.

I know I am going to get eyes rolled for syaing this, but I think Joan Baez is underrated as a guitarist. Not a lot of people know that she played all her own guitar all the time. So that means all that AMAZING work, on All My Trials, and later, Diamonds and Rust, was all her. She was a helluva better guitar player than Dylan.
