There are no facts about this. We're talking about how we feel about his playing.
One can't know that someone can or can't play well, that something is good or bad--knowledge claims require truth values (propositional knowledge is justified true belief), and there are no truth values for evaluative assessments a la good, bad, better, worse, etc.

While music itself is up for interpretation whether it is good or not, guitar playing isn't always up for interpretation. There is a specific standard to be held to when playing guitar, and again, I say this fully knowing that Jimmy Page is a good guitar player, never said he wasnt, I only said that it's a shame that he's not up to par with what could be considered one of the greats, but to put him in the top 10 is showing your ignorance toward guitar players that can actually play both technically and melodically.
