Best Guitarist

[ryne]

I don't mean this to be U2 vs STP, although that might be interesting, but I'm wondering who people think is the better gifted guitarist in their skills, their creativity, their craftsmanships, their everything you can think of. I can't decide because I like a lot of The Edge's rifts like "Mysterious Ways" but DeLeo seems to be more of a rocker and can pump out much better solos if he wants to.

Dean is a great guitarist, he has a similar style to Slash. Edge is great at coming up with interesting riffs, but doesn't seem to play to many solos.On a side not Robert Deleo is also a wicked bassist.

Don't know who's better, but I like STPs music better, so I'll go with DeLeo.

[metallica1]

'The Edge' is a tool.

[Big Boy Sixxx]

the edge isnt a particularly good guitarist at all, he's pretty average, so DeLeo gets my vote

[moreblack]

neither of them is great, just adequate for the music they play.

[T Patten]

neither of them is great, just adequate for the music they play.

I'll second that, although the edge gets some nice soft sounding notes...

[Battlehawk]

Meh, dont care

I don't actually know what to make of the Edge. Sometimes he looks as if he's actually up to something while playing then the rest of the time he is clinging on to Bono in an attempt to get noticed even though he's useless.

ive always liked the edges delay style

I'll third that.

[The Third Man]

Definetely Dean. It's all effects with The Edge, even a cupcake-like figure could re-create them.

[Duffan]

I think Deleo is more of a pure Player than the edge , Edge is very creative with his sounds and has an intresting style but as a stright-up guitarist he adequte so they are pretty equal in my eyes .
