Notable Rock And Pop Guitarists Of Past 50 Years
Over the years, there have been many guitarists that stood out from the crowd - their skill, speed, ad
showmanship distinguished them as experts. Here are just a few of them.
Jim Adkins, lead singer and lead guitarist for Jimmy Eat World, has been playing guitar since he was a
youngster. Jim uses a Gibson Les Paul electric guitar, but recently has been reported to use a Fender
Telecaster.
George Harrison, born in England, was the lead guitarist for the famous, or perhaps infamous, band
The Beatles! George also did some songwriting, and proved himself a quite capable songwriter. George
also went on to become a film produce and even acted a few roles. But he is best known as the lead
guitarist for the beloved Beatles!
Keith Richards, is best known as a founding member of The Rolling Stones,. (Though a small but
fanatical group sees him primarily as the inspiration for Johnny Depp's brilliant character, Captain Jack
Sparrow.) That aside, Mr. Richards is one of the best guitarists to ever live. His nicknames include
"The Human Riff" and "Keef RiffHard".
Elvis Presley, though he isn't one of the most skilled guitarists that ever lived, certainly deserves the
title of "The guitarist that brought the most change". With his guitar and his unique voice, Elvis started
a rebellion - one that dwarfed all of the revolutions the world had seen up to that time, for this one
covered the entire world, and is still going strong. While it directly killed no one, it was very powerful -
it was that evil beat they called Rock Music!
Steven Curtis Chapman, while not exactly as influential as Elvis, certainly deserves the title of guitar
virtuoso. Anyone who has seen Steven give a concert will know what I say when I say that his guitar is
just an extension of his body. It seems that he can make that guitar "talk" just how he wants - with no
effort!
