Nice to see Zappa and May on here. Maybe add some more exceptional guitarists (Satriani, Van Halen, Morse, Vai, Herring, etc) and more than just rock.

Kind of subjective on the fame part here. Is Hammett really more famous than Dave Mustaine?

Dave Mustaine is famous, but for being the lead guitarist/singer of Megadeth. He didn't even record one studio album with Metallica.

Dave Mustaine is famous for crying about not being in Metallica for 35 of their 37 years.

The quiz made no claims to be exclusive, inclusive, or even representative of anything. It was simply "name the guitarist." No one is missing. No one was slighted.

Half of these are one guitar bands! Not exactly "lead guitarists" are they? And yes, Keith Richards is the rhythm guitarist in the Stones.

Weezer and Oasis are on the same page as Pete Townshend, George Harrison, Jimmy Page, Brian May and Eric Clapton? That's the first time that's ever happened.

But how many people with Jet Punk accounts have worked a few offices down from the brother of one the people on the list? I bet I'm on the very short list. Never made the connection even though he had the same last name until Metallica was playing the next day and our boss said something to the effect of "Kent is taking tomorrow off since his brother is going to be in town and he doesn't get to see him much when he's on tour." Never talked about music with him, he liked talking about college football a lot more.

Just a comment to say well done on the phrasing saying “best known” guitarist, tried Crespo for Aerosmith but it didn’t work. :)
