Yeah, I would imagine that their level of influence has a lot to do with some of them making the list. Which is why I can't understand how Eddie Van Halen made it. That list is pretty good, I would switch a few up.

1. Jimi Hendrix
2. Eric Clapton
3. Jimmy Page
4. Keith Richards
5. Slash
6. Buckethead
7. Kirk Hammet
8. Synyster Gates(Avenged Sevenfold)
9. Ry Cooder
10. John Frusciante
