Simple question, couldn't find any previous threads concerning this.
Who are the top 5 guitarists who have influenced your playing style most? You can say how and why they influenced you as well if you want.
If you were influenced by 2 guitarists from 1 band, list them as one.
Mine are (in no particular order):
1 - Shaun Morgan of Seether - I like the mix of melodic and heavier parts, plus his guitar tone I love too.
2 - Adam Jones of Tool - He makes such crazy, atmospheric stuff, Tool were the first band that really made me thing about opening my palette effects wise.
3 - Fredrik Thordendal / Marten Hagstrom of Meshuggah - They could write a catchy metal tune with the greatest of ease, but they choose to do soemthing completely different and revolutionary in metal and music in general. Oh yeah, and they play Ibanez 8 strings.
4 - Brent Hinds / Bill Kelliher of Mastodon - I just love the technicality and heavyness of what they do. They are shredders but with a twist.
5 - Greg Tribbet of Mudvayne - They were the first metal band I listened to, and what got me interested in the guitar in the first place.
There are more, but that just my top 5![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
