Amen.

GOnna go Tony. Pretty close though. Jimmy Page used to be my idol but the more I play guitar the more I respect Iommi. And Page was sloppy. All Page has over Iommi would be his acoustic work, which I love.

Jimmy is great, versatile like mentioned already.

Tony I feel has better tones.

I love both guitarists, but I think Jimmy Page is the better of the two. Jimmy can play Rock, Blues, Folk, and other genres with ease, while Tony really only plays Metal.

Pages's riffs have impressed me more than Iommi's. Page.

I'm a fan of both, but of the two, only Page is one of my top 10 guitarists.
