I can't play the guitar for shit, but love to listen. Anyway, which guitarists do you think have the best and worst tone?

I like the sound Roy Harper gets on hs acoustic guitar, and as for the electric, you can't go wrong with Tom G Warrior from Celtic Frost.

Matt Pike of Sleep/High on Fire comes to mind.

Hot:
Greg Ginn in his prime i.e. before his playing got derailed by John McLauglin-style jazz-fusion-metal nonsense. Keith Richards / Mick Taylor circa "Exile on Main Street" Not: The inevitable Malmsteen / Satriani /Vai axis of widdle. Much Flea-style jazz-rock-funk bass fusionry. Paul Weller's sub-Steve Marriot sweaty rock clumping of recent years. Me.

The guitar tone on the old Smashing Pumpkins albums (Gish,Siamese Dream) is amazing...so gotta go for Billy Corgan
Thurston and Lee's tone has to be my favourite

good tones:
polvo people jesu/godflesh j. broaderick tones steve albini napalm death guitarist dude from unsane/cutthroats 9 alex newport trey spruance (really, the best guitarist around, period..) paul leary dudes from neurosis wes borland dude from deftones dude from jawbreaker fucking champs guys!!!!!!!! deerhoof peeps ponytail peeps johnny marr helios creed (no shit, eh?) early misfits guitar (so fuzzy!) man or astroman dick dale fripp (usually) erase errata (until nightlife...) not-so-good tone: dude from phish (every song i've heard has the same shitty tone) dude from system of a down (too dry) sun city girls dude (though he is an amazing guitarist; it's probably the production is what usually makes his guitar tone kinda lack) ... uh... That's about it. Most "professional" bands have good guitar tones and good drummers, if nothing else. |

Nah, it's awesome and beautiful. Highly melodic. A metal band with neoclassical aspirations? Perfect.
Speaking of which, I forgot to mention the dude from Necrophagist.. he has a similiar tone on his solos.. amazing. |
