I remember seeing Van Halen in 2005 (I think), and Edward played a solo of “Spanish Fly” on a ‘cuatro’ guitar (which is a Puerto Rican guitar-like instrument) — I couldn’t believe my eyes.... I would’ve never imagined Ed playing a cuatro, ever. I was impressed that he even knew what a cuatro was.... that brought such a smile to my face....

Steve Howe / YES

Carlos Santana

Those are two of my favorites too! I would also add Frank Zappa and Todd Rundgren.

If her pictures are a fair representation of her looks, she is certainly the hottest.

Yep, that’s exactly how she looks. Minus, you know. Wind machines.

Oh I didn’t give it enough thought. Lindsey for sure is on the list!

I forgot about Lindsay, Brittany and Paris! Oh, wait...you're probably talking about Lindsey Buckingham. Those girls don't really know how to play a guitar; they're all flutists, of one type or another.

Nobody could play slide guitar like George Harrison. At least that is what my other favorite, Eric Clapton said. Harrison's slide play was incredible. God rest his soul.
