Who Made the World’s Greatest Guitarists List?

While Willie Nelson, Buddy Holly and Chet Atkins are on Rolling Stone’s new list of the 100 greatest guitarists, some obvious guitar wizards are missing. Not included are Glen Campbell, Vince Gill, Brad Paisley and Keith Urban.

Rolling Stone limits the list to 100 pickers. And the guitar gods, and a few goddesses, are from all styles of music. Others who made it on the list include Joe Walsh, Roger McGuinn, Billy Gibbons, Duane Eddy, Bonnie Raitt, Les Paul, Duane Allman, Derek Trucks and Carl Perkins. Rolling Stone says the top guitarist of all time was Jimi Hendrix.
