Slash is obviously over-rated within the music industry. I mean the guy is still been sold as GnR axeman, after over 10 years since he left the band. Slash has Guns n' Roses written all over him, that's what sells signature LesPauls and over-priced Wah pedals. He endorses more brands than a nascar pilot, and he doesn't even use half the shit he has his name on. This been said, he once was the guy who made guys like me want to do this for a living.
Zakk Wylde's style has change quiet a bit. Not only his sound but looks as well. I have to say I do like his sound now (woooooooo) yes I do. He was known as a hired gun for ozzy (thats an over rated singer by the way...) and now he's known for his own act BLS. That's really simple, 20 years have passed, thank god his sound has changed.
Eddie Van Halen is the coolest guy I've had the chance to meet. That man is super cool, great attitude toward people who are kin to meet him. Not my favourite player and not someone I would mention as an influence but deffntly someone that deserves the spot he has in the guitar world.
Keith Richards over rated?
... To me Keith Richards IS the ultimate bad ass guitar legend(.)
Eric Clapton...
