I think Jerry Cantrell was the best guitarist to come out of that genre. Frusciante is AWESOME too, but the RHCP were around long before grunge took off. It's not that I expect every guitarist to shred, but the guys from those bands just seemed like they didn't practice enough as kids. Worse, they influenced a lot of other kids to not aim high in their playing. The drumming from that era, however, was great. Dave Abruzzese, Matt Cameron, Chad Gracey, even Dave Grohl - excellent drummers. Oh, and the best drummer of that era, hands down, was Aaron Comess of the Spin Doctors. He's ridiculous.
