Alexi Laiho

the guy out of Opeth (my memory sucks)

I don't know if he has been mentioned yet, but Eddie Van Halen is at the top of my list.

Slash ( for solos in November rain etc)
Max Cavalera ( for riffs in Schizophrenia )
Alexi Laiho
Not to be included in my list are:
Malmsteen ( cos he uses too much Arpeggios)
Kirk Hammet ( cos he uses too much tapping)

You do know that Alexi Laiho uses a lot of arpeggios, don't you? I'd also add that Kirk Hammet uses no more tapping than the next thrash soloist - in fact, his recent work is completely deviod of the technique altogether.

Assuming I haven't already replied to this (and not bothering to look through), here are some people I really look up to.
Muhammed Suicmez (I'll never be on his level and have resigned myself to that fact)
Marty Friedman
Ron Jarzombek & Billy White
Paul Masvidal & Jason Gobel
Pat O'Brien
Frank Emmi & Rand Burkey
Doug Cerrito
Terrance Hobbs
My only true hero, and he has been my hero since I started out with guitar, is Dave Mustaine. Anybody who doesn't like that is in for a beatdown followed by a savage teabagging.

I feek that John Lowery (also known to minimoshers as John 5) is my fav guitar player. Check out his album vertigo. it's not the most technixally outstanding album I've ever heard, But he's just got such a wierd style. must be all his country lovin'.
Also, the guitarist from Nokturnal Mortum is pretty good at making dodge folk/black riffs and wierd sweepy solos. they may be a bunch of NS assholes, but their music still rocks.
apart from that it's all pretty obvious: Satch, Vai, Malmsteen, Batio, Fareri, Dime (RIP), Hanneman, Thompson & Root (except when playing w/ tonkpilS), Mustaine, Friedman, Pin & Weller (SikTh), Lykathea Aflame's axeman, and Gash (you don't know him yet, but give it time...  )
