Bass guitar!

I always thought Ed King gave Skinnerd their distinctive sound that made them stars. They weren't as good after he left.

These list threads make me tired.

So many great guitarists that have moved me. If I can only list 10:

BB King
Larry Carlton
Jeff Beck
SRV
Jimi
Clapton
Robbie Krieger
David Gilmour
Robben Ford
Tommy Emmanuel

Crap, I was just getting started!

I figured those 10,000+ posts you made in the picture thread would have built up your stamina by now

That's why I wanted folks to list only 10....we could all get to 100 pretty easily I suspect

I don't know much about guitar/music. But that dude Prince could rock. My favorite band growing up in the 70/80's was Van Halen, and I do love Eddie. But just plain love and heart, IMO it goes to Prince. No disrespect to the prodigious list posted above, they are all craftsmen. Music is personal. What talks to you?

Edit - was Lindsey Buckingham mentioned? How about Neil Giraldo?

[Chocaholic]

Ah yes, Tommy Emanuel is 9 of my top 10. Monte Montgomery is the other.
