Dimebag Darrell, Pantera
“He deserves to be number one on every list because he played with the most emotion out of any guitarist ever.”
“rest in peace”
“BEST METAL GUITARIST AND 2ND BEST GUITARIST EVER! of course thats my opinion, hes great, my guitar idol, and my reason for playing metal”
“AN IDOL FOR ALL
WE MISS YOU DIME”
“He's Way better than prince.
There's no one like him.”
“He could scream/cry with his solos, and being influenced by EVH, RR, and Page, he basically could destroy anyone else out there. Without him metal would be way the hell different.”
“DIME BAG WAS THE BEST DAM GUITAR PLAYER FOR HIS KIND. I THINK THAT PERSONALLY HE SHOULD BE #1 AND THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT PRINCE SHOULD BE #1.. I DONT CARE IF HE CAN PLAY A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTS BUT DIME PLAYED THE BEST DAM METAL AND MADE MEETAL THE WAY IT IS TODAY WITHOUT HIM WE WOULD OF BEEN LOST”
“This guy was head and shoulders above anyone in guitar playing! If you know anything about playing, you know this guy was in a league of his own! Simply the best to ever play the instrument!”
“Dimebag Darrell was a master at guitar, i cannot begin to understand why that guy that shot him, shot him but he was the saddest man alive 2 have 2 do that, i mean i would lose my arm and leg 2 watch him shred at a concert live he is absolutely incredible”
“Dimebag=guitar god”
“Dime has inspired us all, i agree that he is thee guitar god of all time”
“rip dime you're ever in my heart!!!!!!”
“Deserves way better than no. 10 spot!”
“great guitarist when he used to play cowboys from hell AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! R.I.P”
“Dimebag had the best solos i ever heard cause they were on a high technical level and sounded kick ass. My favourite Guitarist!!”
“Dimebag is without a doubt the greatest guitarist of all time in my books. He could shred like no man, and (to my knowlage)was the only metal guitarist to ever bring in Chicken Picking to his solos.
Rest in peace brother dime!”
“Dimebag was definatly one of the greatest guitarists of our time, great guy and will always, always be missed forever, R.I.P Brother.
S.D.M.F”
“listen to the solo in cemetery gates, then try to disagree with this.”
“Dimebag Darrell Abbott was and always will be one of the all-time greatest metal/thrash guitarists and greatest shredders of all time. The man has left his mark on the metal/thrash genre, and his music will inspire forever.
if you do not believe that Dimebag was one of the greatest listen to the solo's from Pantera-Cemetery Gates, and Floods. then make your decision.”
“Listen to Cowboys from Hell or Cemetary Gates and you will be hooked on Pantera”
“How can Synyster gates be ranked above Dimebag? Even a lot of the other guys ranked above him shouldn't be, but Synyster Gates? What little kids are voting on this?
Dimebags playing was on another level. RIP Brother Dime.”
“definately pure metal with southern attitude...dimebag was the best metal guitarist ever and no one played like him in history. he has such feeling and passion when he played, wether if it was crazy solos or face melting riffs....the riff from "im broken" is probably his best, his crazyiest solo is definatley the one in "Domination" and personaly my favorite work of his is the solo from "this love" dimebag is just pure genius”
“The first time i heard pantera i listened to Walk and there was something special there... Dimebag is 1 of ma favorite guitarest ever... Vote the Dime”
“Dimebag was and still is my hero.
The guy could shred with emotion.
Simply one of the best guitarists of all time.
Rest In Peace, Dimebag.”
“Dime was and will always be number one for me as a guitarist, not even Jimmy could compare to the amount of inspiration and skill that Dime brought to the table. He was the innovater for future metal guitarists, he was absolutely brillant! His memory will live on through his family, friends and fans. And if you think that he doesn't deserve this spot, and you've never heard him shred, I strongly suggest you watch/listen to 5 minutes alone, This Love, Walk, Cemetary Gates, and all the greatest songs by Pantera. I'm sure you'll change your mind! R.I.P. Dimebag Darrell
"In this river all shall fade to black" -Zakk Wylde (In this River, a tribute to Dime)”
“He is the greatest guitar ever...he is almost a god!!!He is Unic And Authentic!!!!R.I.P”
“He Should be number one, he was, and is and will always be the best, this ones for you Dime.”
“he was so unfluential, and amazingly talented. R.I.P<3”
“There is no band like Pantera. Dimebag was one of the greatest shredders ever, and his solos were INSANE. He died way too early.”
“Dimebag Darrel really invented modern Heavy Metal!”
“Dimebag was awesome. EVH has said that Darrell is the best of all time. I love Darrell, but to those of you who can not see past the thrash/metal genre who are bashing Prince go to Youtube and look up "Prince while my guitar gently weeps" and check out where he helps induct George Harrison into the rock hall of fame.”
“DIMEBAG SHOULD BE AT THE TOP!”
“I cannot believe the legendary Dimebag, was placed in this position... This guy had metal in his hands, up until some maniac shot him.”
“are you kidding me Dimebag needs to in the top 10 just listen to him”
“This dude is a legend he could have been even better if he was alive I think he can beat kirk hammett... he's from *TEXAS*!”
“Seriously, this man was amazing. A god to all rock. RIP”
“"RE... SPECT... WALK! ARE YOU TALKIN' TO ME? " yep, dimebag was a one of a kind shredder. he's probably still shredding in heaven with hendrix. RIP”
“From glam to thrash, this dude could shred. Dime was innovative and imaginative, putting his whole soul into everything he played. RIP.”
“the solos he played to walk and cemetery gates were masterpieces, and let's not forget the intro to cowboys from hell, it's a metal anthem”
“RIP. And why OH why isn't he in the top? He paid his dues and went out like a rockstar in true form.”
