It's just a damn shame that he's not very good at it.

Ja, his songwriting is the real gem, not quite the guitar chops themselves.

I love Tony iommi's simplistic guitar riffs. They are a lot of fun.

Jimmy Page is great. This is a tough one, but i have to give it to Page. He's just a better guitarist.

It's pretty well known that he isn't a great guitar player. I didn't say he couldn't play, but he's not that great in comparison to people that are great.

Ah--didn't realize we had that one. Thanks. I hadn't paid much attention to the emoticons here (obviously).

Personally, I don't like to measure greatness by the ability of the guitarist. I like to measure it by how good his songwriting ability is.

Though in response to this thread, I imagine they are basing this off of the ability of the guitarist themselves, otherwise I'd agree.
