Title: Guitarist hall of fame

Thought it would be cool if we built a photo gallery of some legends of guitar. I'll start it off with this fantastic shot of Jimi Hendrix

I'll assume auto-correct got you ;)

Randy Rhoads will always be my favourite. This is my favourite image of him too (sorry it's so large).

Good one, GS.

Well, I of course have to be the odd duck on this one.  Just how I roll, ya know.  8)  So, without further ado, an "out of left field" old favorite of mine - Mr. Roy Clark...

Not the best guitarist around, GS, but good.  And an entertainer at the same time.  Check out Wiki, of course, then do a search for "roy clark youtube" and check out a few.  Especially the 'Ghost Riders' from 2013 - not bad for 80 years old.  Just a fun guy that can play about anything...

I'd always put Jeff Beck high up on any list..........
I guess he was too busy building hot rods to have time for being a super star..........  8)
