ok i've been going through the archives and been digging up BEST guitartist polls one after the other. How about this : we take one week and let everyone name great guitarists that they can think of on this thread . then the moderators take all those names and make a poll where people can choose all the ones they consider great ( no limits on how many a person can choose). and finally we will have the most popular guitarist on IGT .. and we'll also know which guitarists are conisdered the best by us all . Seems to me .. all polls somehow manage to miss naming some guitarists. so this will let us create a pretty long list and should be pretty exhasutive ... How does that sound ... ?? lot of work for the moderators but i have a feeling it'll be worht it ... PS : how bout making that poll a sticky one ??
