Mount Rushmore of Guitar Players

[Rock72]

So, if I were to redesign Mount Rushmore and replace the Presidents symbolizing the greatness of the U.S. and democracy with guitar players who I personally think symbolizes the greatness in guitar music the way I see it, I would choose:

Eric Clapton
Jimi hendrix
Jimmy Page
The Edge

Who would you choose? Remeber, this is not a competition of who was the greatest guitar players of all time etc etc etc....

[iamhammill]

Jimmy Page
Jerry Garcia
David Gilmour

Last spot is tough...

Dickey Betts/Duane Allman/Peter Frampton

[Suproman77]

The Mount Rushmore of Rock:

Clapton
Hendrix
Page
Van Halen

[SGNick]

Interesting idea, everyone will have a different list of guitarists, but hey, that makes for good discussion! Mine would be as follows

1. Eric Clapton
2. Jimi Hendrix
3. Jimmy Page
4. Robert Johnson

[shuie]

Yngwie. And maybe John Mayer.

:banana

[bloodlemons]

Pete Townshend
Brian May
Jimi Hendrix
Slash

Or something like that...

[Rock72]

You mean "rock" guitar music?

Not necessarily. Choose the ones important to you :). Electric, acoustic rock, blues, classic...it doesn't matter.

[Frankee]

Clapton.
Hendrix.
Page.
Beck.

That's the no brainer....

My personal take,

Taylor.
Marr.
Van Halen.
Keef.

[Serious Poo]

Jimi Hendrix
Jimmy Page
Eddie Van Halen
Ritchie Blackmore

[cvansickle]

Scotty Moore
Jimi Hendrix
Jimmy Page
Eddie Van Halen

[JumpMarine]

With it being Mt Rushmore it's got to be American Rock legends

Jimi
Stevie
Duane
Eddie

[jazzandmetal?]

Eddie Van Halen
Jimi Hendrix
Jimmy Page
Tony Iommi

[Teleplayer]

Segovia
Pass
Hendrix
Les Paul

[GAT]

Hendrix

[geetarboy]

Clapton, Hendrix, Page and Beck. Duh.

[The Last Rebel]

Jerry Garcia, Keith Richards, Willie Nelson, David Gilmour.

[jmecale72]

Clapton, Hendrix, Van Halen and this guy....

[Andrew D.]

I'm just glad Hendrix is on almost everyone's list!

[burner]

David Gilmour
Jimi Hendrix
Jeff Hanneman
Kerry King

:D

[oldguitar]

That's a tough one, but I'll say: Les Paul, Chet Atkins, Jimi Hendrix, Willie Nelson.

[sovtekking]

I dont know...Hendrix...BB king...Robert Johnson... and Chet Atkins seem more fitting to me.

[rwe333]

Segovia
Travis
Christian
Berry

...perhaps...

[DocRock]

Les Paul
Jimi Hendrix
Steve Vai
Jimmy Page

[dumbell78]

Hendrix
Clapton

but damn i need to make room for SRV!!!

[jazzandmetal?]

Ritchie Blackmore (since he's already there)
Keith Richards
Les Paul
Jimi Hendrix
T-Bone Walker

[Dr. Tweedbucket]

Richie Blackmore
Steve Morse
Phil Keaggy
Jimmy Page


:)

[SimonR]

Jimi Hendrix
Eddie Van Halen
Eric Clapton
BB King

[Ritualee]

Hendrix
Van Halen
Yngwie
Page

I had the hardest time with the last pick. Obviously I narrowed it to a rock list. I went with those who I felt had changed the game single handedly and inspired endless followers. Would have loved to put Beck on there as he's sometimes my favorite, but I don't feel like his influence is widespread enough.

[?&!]

I'm gonna switch it up, and make my list the "Mt. Rushmore of Rock Rhythm Guitarists"...

Pete Townshend
Keith Richards
Malcolm Young
James Hetfield

Badasses!!!

[James V]

Here is my list:

Hendrix
SRV
Clapton
Gilmour

We wouldn't be honest with ourselves if we didn't allow a change to the list. So, I would shift Duane in when needed.

[bjjp2]

If it's not limited to rock, then Wes Montgomery needs to be there.

[twinrider1]

Difficult. Do they make it for talent or impact....

Les Paul
Roy Clark
Chet Atkins
Edward Van Halen

[?&!]

Difficult. Do they make it for talent or impact....

Les Paul
Roy Clark
Chet Atkins
Edward Van Halen

Nice list!

[Ed DeGenaro]

I'd go with the guys without whom we wouldn't be here....
Christian
Django
Les Paul or Chet ATkins
Jimi

If I would go with musos it'd only one guitarist

Jimi
Buddy Rch
Miles Davis
Jaco

[Dickie Fredericks]

Howard Roberts
Jimi Hendrix
Leo Fender
Les Paul

[twinrider1]

(snip)

If I would go with musos it'd only one guitarist

Jimi
Buddy Rch
Miles Davis
Jaco

Great group. Those are 4 players that, for me, make the instruments disappear. The music just comes from inside those guys.

EDIT: Oh yea, and who's going to tell Buddy he can't be up there. I'm not going to tell him. Youuuuu tell him. :-)

[TaronKeim]

Tarrega
Django
Jimi
Torn

_TJK*

[waxnsteel]

The Mount Rushmore of Rock:

Clapton
Hendrix

Van Halen:agree

[Leonc]

Most influential rock guitarists, IMO:

Chuck Berry
Jimi Hendrix
Jimmy Page / Eric Clapton (tie--pick one)
Eddie VanHalen

[waxnsteel]

Jimi
Buddy Rch
Miles Davis
Jaco

Damn what a show that would have been!

The Mount Rushmore of Rock:

+1 I don't see how it could be anything else.

[Alister]

Segovia

Hendrix
Les Paul

Good one. I might sub Django for Joe P., but a tough call.

[m1911]

Duane Allman....

[DocRock]

If it's not limited to rock, then Wes Montgomery needs to be there.

:agree

[DocRock]

Funny, though ... I'm a rock guy through and through. I've noticed a majority of Mt. Rushmore of Rock recommendations have been for Eddie Van Halen, and I'm not necessarily disagreeing.

It just got me thinking:

Van Halen has had ZERO influence on me. In fact, I've never owned a single Van Halen album in all my life. I only know the songs that were on the radio in the car, and most of the time I change the station because I've heard them too many times.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only rocker who doesn't really care about Van Halen.

Is that weird?

P.S. I am in no way implying that Eddie's contributions should be minimized. There is no denying the mark he has made on guitar history. I've really brought up a seperate issue, and am thinking out loud more than anything.

That'd be a good Mt. Rushmore of "Guitarists Who Have Managed To Stay Relevent." I'm suprised Jer hasn't shown up more on here, honestly. Pretty much made the jam band genre. But, I have seen that 20 minute jazz-rock odyssey's aren't exactly the popular thing around here.

[clemduolian]

Robert Johnson
Charlie Christian
Django Reinhardt
Les Paul
Jimi Hendrix**

(If its limited to 4 only, lose Les...but considering his playing AND contributions to contemporary electric instruments...it should be 5)

[Birdsmoke]

George Harrison

David Gilmour

I understand what you're saying, however if you're a rock guy I can't help but feel that many of the players that HAVE influenced you will have been influenced by EVH.

In my opinion, there are three "eras" when it comes to rock guitar playing, pre Jimi, post Jimi and post EVH. Both Jimi and Eddie re-wrote the book on how electric (rock) guitar is played and the influence of both is undeniably pervasive.

I love them both!

These guys impacted the genre more than any other ROCK guitarist. I can't speak to Jazz etc, but this is my Mount Rockmore.....

Other than he blew in like a hurricane and revived the guitar rock scene with a sound and tone that's never been heard before while influencing thousands of guys to pick up and learn the guitar...... yeah, I guess Eddie and the band didn't really do anything. http://img3.harmony-central.com/acapella/ubb/smile.gif


Most people can't play at that level and there is no shame in admitting it. http://img3.harmony-central.com/acapella/ubb/smile.gif

I started playing guitar not long before the first VH album came out and I think I may have been the only kid in my jr. high that didn't buy the record. I just never had any desire to plaly like him. I'll never know if I could have because I never tried. I have seen VH live a number of times but his playing never touched me like it did most people of my generation.


Ronnie Wood
Mick Taylor
Joe Perry
Peter Frampton

I would have to say that those four were the biggest influences on how I play, and being a Detroiter, Ted Nugent gets an honorable mention. The Detroit radio stations played him at least once an hour when I was a kid, at least it seemed that way.

[blood5150]

I dig Buddy Guy's Mt Bluesmore.

Would have loved to put Beck on there as he's sometimes my favorite, but I don't feel like his influence is widespread enough.

I'll second that for iconic monuments of rock.

[bforest4]

Rock:
Eddie Van Halen
Jimi Hendrix

David Gilmour

Jeff Beck

Perhaps my original post is worthy of a re-read. I said that I was IN NO WAY minimizing EVH's contributions or the mark he has left on guitar history. All I was saying was that I was probably one of the weird rock guys who isn't into him. I never said or implied that he didn't do anything important.

And what exactly are you implying about most people being unable to play at that level? What does that have to do with anything I said?

Mount Rushmore is home to some of the "founding fathers" and "greatest" of all
time (not just the current favorites of modern times) so I'd go with these guys:

http://www.mcquain.com/lespaul/Favorites/Chet_Les.jpg
http://www.mcquain.com/lespaul/Favorites/BBKing_Sweat_In_Eyes1.jpg

The first 3 are set in stone but it's a toss-up for the fourth slot
(I'd prefer E.C. but there is no doubt about Jimi either)

http://www.mcquain.com/lespaul/Favorites/Clapton_BeanoBurst1.jpg
http://www.mcquain.com/lespaul/Favorites/Hendrix0.jpg

[stratovarius]

So, if I were to redesign Mount Rushmore and replace the Presidents symbolizing the greatness of the U.S. and democracy with guitar players who I personally think symbolizes the greatness in guitar music the way I see it, I would choose:

Eric Clapton
Jimi hendrix
Jimmy Page
The Edge

Who would you choose? Remeber, this is not a competition of who was the greatest guitar players of all time etc etc etc....

But wouldn't you have to move the mountain to Europe? :confused:

[soulmap]

Jimi
Buddy Rich
Miles Davis
Jaco

that would make for an interesting band!

just throw in James Booker on keys :crazyguy

[cody_scu]

My personal Mt. Rushmore:

Eric Clapton
Dickey Betts
Jeff Beck
Joe Walsh

[phatster]

Clapton,Gallagher, Allman,Hendrix

[neastguy]

Hendrix
Scotty Moore
Jimmy Page
Jeff Beck


who is scotty moore?

[phoenix 7]

Clapton.
Hendrix.
Page.
Beck.

+1. I believe that would be Mount RIFFmore.

[bluesjunior]

Robert Johnson
Muddy Waters
BB King
Hank B Marvin.

[mmcquain]

who is scotty moore?

He played guitar on the old Elvis records in the 50's

[MartinPiana]

Segovia
Charlie Christian
Django
Jimi

[Brooks]

for me,

page
iommi
EVH
sco

[MBreinin]

Chuck Berry
Les Paul
Jimi
Eddie

These had the most impact on Rock and Roll.

[rccCrawler]

For me:

Jimi
Jimmy
Eddie
Pete

To me personally, Eddie is the modern Pete. No one seems to give Pete enough credit, in a Mt.Rushmore way. And Eddi's had a similar effect on the way rhythm guitar is played.

But there's no getting past Jimi. He was the Mozart of our time.

[paulydangerous]

Jimi
SRV
Eddie
Page
and a 5th member--Derek Trucks

[Dr. Tweedbucket]

For me:

Jimi
Jimmy
Eddie
Pete

To me personally, Eddie is the modern Pete. No one seems to give Pete enough credit, in a Mt.Rushmore way. And Eddi's had a similar effect on the way rhythm guitar is played.

But there's no getting past Jimi. He was the Mozart of our time.



Dude! That is an awesome pick !! :hiP

[57special]

limiting myself to 4 faces that symbolize guitar i would have to say;
1- Django
2- Robert Johnson
3- Christian
4- Hendrix



Honorable mentions to Les Paul, Eddie Lang, Jeff Beck. Chuck Berry and Clapton were incredibly influential, also, but I consider the above to be more important. Not a Van Halen fan, but if you ever saw the Les Paul birthday celebration with Eddie as a guest you realize that they are two peas in a pod.

[codeorama]

I'd have 2 separate Mt. Rushmores:

My personal one:
Jimmy Page, Rick Neilsen, EVH and Tony Iommi

The "real" one: (IMO of course)
Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and EVH

[bilbal]

Garcia/Weir (Please don't make me choose)
Gilmour
SRV
Page

[mattwasserman]

Jimi
BB
Eric
Duane

Derek Trucks and SRV get my honorable mention, give Derek some more time (and me some more time to see his shows) and he'll soon be moving up that list.

[crzyfngers]

hendrix
beck
christian
gatton
segovia
it's getting crowded up there

[glahnb]

Although none of the four are in my personal top five as favorite players, when it comes to pure influence, I don't think you can ignore these guys:


Hendrix, Page, Clapton, Eddie Van Halen.

If it's purely my favorite, top four are The Edge, David Gilmour, Jonny Greenwood, Angus Young.

[GUITARFORCE]

Good thread....for me it would be

Randy Rhoads
Dimebag
Michael Schenker
EVH

I would add another head to include Angus Young.

[nik]

Segovia
Django
Wes
Hendrix

This would be mine also...

[postalblowfish]

How come no-one picked George Washington? Didn't he use an axe?

Chuck, George (Harrison), Jimi, Tom Verlaine for me, if the Mount is rock.

[cg]

Hendrix
Van Halen
Page
Chuck Berry

[gregory49]

Not Necessarly my fav players but def the most important.

Hendrix

[elgalad]

1. Kossoff
2. Kossoff
3. Kossoff
4. Kossoff

[harryjmic]

A couple issues with some of the posts, you have to pick an American guy so Beck, Clapton, Page etc are all out. It would be like putting Winston Churchill up there, "Hey it's the USA!"

With this in mind I'd choose:

Chet Atkins - basically invented the Nashville sound
Wes Montgomery - still the jazz guitar king
BB King - Lots of great blues guys but he still is probably the best overall package.
Andres Segovia (if American?) -

otherwise

Jimi Hendrix - the downside is it took hanging out in England before he got famous.

[zombywoof]

Lonnie Johnson
Chuck Berry
Paul Burlinson
Jimi Hendrix

What I would rather see, however, would be:

Leo Fender
Ted McCarty

Yngwie. And maybe John Mayer.

:bananaYou'd need Alexander Dumble too, just for the holy trinity of TGP no-no's.

I'd have Robert Johnson & Jimi Hendrix and leave it at that. Although Eric Clapton probably deserves a place along with EVH for their respective influence on all that came after them.

How about a Blues Rushmore?
Mine would be Robert Johnson, Albert Collins, John Lee Hooker, Freddie King, although I'd still like to shoehorn Jimi Hendrix onto that one too.
