    Guitarists you'd love to meet in person.

    Hi everyone,


    I was just wondering, which guitarists you'd love to meet in person if you had the chance?, here's my list of the ones I'd love to meet:


    1, Angus Young, from AC/DC.

    2, Malcom Young, also from AC/DC.

    3, Eric Johnson.

    4, Dave Mustaine, from Megadeth.

    5, Joe Satriani, from Chickenfoot.

    6, Tony Iommi, from Black Sabbath.

    I have personally met Nita Strauss when Motley Crue came here recently, back in 2013 I also met Muse when they played here too! Wicked awesome when you can meet your idol/s! My list of axe players to meet is too long to post here!!!

    I'm with Pest the list of guitarists I'd love to meet is too long to list. I would love to meet all the players in your list DrNomis.
    A few of the guitarists I'd love to meet aren't around anymore (Hendrix, SRV, BB King, Randy Rhoads)
    I saw on TV lastnight Angus Young was in the crowd at the French Open Federer match.

    Just realized that I should have added ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons to my list, he's cool.

    Dave Grohl, Ed O'Brien, Brent Hinds, Troy Sanders, Les Claypool, David Gilmore. All these seem to be genuinely friendly, funny guys that I seriously respect and could see myself getting along with.

    I've met Guthrie before after a gig but I'd love to have a proper chat with him.

    Would love to also meet Paul Gilbert, Eric Johnson, Nick Johnston, Misha Mansoor, Tosin Abasi, Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, Josh Homme, Tim from Protest the Hero, Josh Smith...

    I think this list is getting too long already!

    Redd Volkaert
    Albert Lee ( share a birthdate but sadly not the talent )
    James Wilsey
    Bill Kirchen
    Vince Gill
    James Burton

    Guess there's a bit of a country influence there and no humbuckers ( Vince does play an LP occasionally and a jazz box with the Time Jumpers )

    Edited to add:-
    Guthrie Trapp
    Rory Gallagher ( hopefully a real long wait for this one )

    Stuie French ( who I have met and jammed with, fabulous player and great bloke )

    Now I'm imagining having a discussion with Joe Pass and Tosin Abasi and Josh Homme at the same time, just need to throw in Paco Pena or Segovia in there to really mess with everyone's heads....
