Default Best Rhythm Guitarist

Say who you think is the best/greatest or just a good rhythm guitarist and give a reason.

Billie Joe Armstrong: he has written some of the catchiest riffs with power chords.

Billy Corgan: He did do some solos but his rhythm is tight and he has some very well formed patterns.

JOHNNY RAMONE

Kept it simple and fun tons of guitarists have learned to play thanks to his easy punk hooks, he was also hella fast and influenced the punk rawk genre immensly.

Noel Gallagher - Oasis

Though Oasis gets on my nerves at times, Gallagher does write some nice chord progressions.

Nice. You really narrowed that one down.

You've named about 7 that I'd have mentioned. Good, broad list.
