Hizaki

Hizaki's not only really talented, but how many times have you seen a man play such solos in a Rococo-esque dress and not mess up? His riffs are melodic, soothing, yet have so much power and feel to it.

Go to Youtube and search for History of the Other Side, Ascendead Master and Desert Apple, just to name a few.

I consider that a lot of the others guitarist in this survey are pretty good, I could say even that they are magicians. Every one who voted for them have a good reason for sure, just as me.
I voted for Hizaki because he is the only one who has got me really bewitched and speechless, and not only by playing guitar but also his compositions and, of course, his outfits. Having the opportunity to see him live and appreciate the beauty that he has created in every way has been heavenly for me.
Hizaki is a guitarist worth knowing.

I love guitar & I respect many on these pages but I must vote for the one that changed me. I will never be the same after hearing him play. No one else has ever done this to me before so the honor goes to Hizaki. There are many talented guitarists here with many different styles but it all seems like child's play after you hear Hizaki. He can do it all if he really wanted to I am positive that this is true.

Hizaki is one of the best modern guitarist. He isn't only a man that dress up like a princess, but is an amazing artist.. You can hear some wonderful song & riffs from him and his band. For example listen Silent Knight or Race Wish[really epic.. ].
He deserves to win, he isn't known like slash, but his skills are more than anyone modern artist!

This guy is insane good creating fantastic original melodies and his technical ability is great.

Hizaki's the best best best guitarist of the history! THE BEST!
HIZAKI is the best, no comparison with anything or anyone. Is unique, authentic, is simply HIZAKI. It is a super professional person, has a great soul on stage. His look, his personality, his solo's, his energy, his passion towards music is UNIQUE! ~ I love Hizaki.

Hizaki ia an aamaaziing guitarist! It's too bad not a lot of people know him-- personally I think he's the best guitarist there is. And he still plays awesome live-- I've even seen a video where he fell down on stage, but still played the song perfectly! If that's not godly I don't know what is.

I love how he fell in London and didn't miss a beat. He just kept on playing. I think he should be higher up on this chart than he is right now, but not enough people know Versailles outside of Japan.

Hizaki changed the way I look at guitars. With his mindblowing solos, beautiful elaborate costumes and his fun attitude, this man has the potential to be the greatest guitarist (if he isn't already)

Hizaki is a really underrated performer. His compositions are innovative and really touching, and has a very nicely developed stage persona. Look up "Faith and Decision" and judge yourself.

HIZAKI is the best guitarist of recent times!... He do sound excellent guitar solos!... No doubt for me the best guitarist is HIZAKI... The power in your hands... HIZAKI the best

Support to this cute and talented man! He is a master with the guitar he created beauty songs just hear a little of Versailles and Hizaki grace project and you'll see!

Hizaki is a Metal Princess.. That have a complete skill, and beautiful looks, and also attractive stage act, in USA Metal band there's no guitarist like him
