Female Guitarist

[Thorlifter]

I was going to do a poll, but decided not to since "The Best" is so subjective. Here are just a few for your pleasure in no order.....

Orianthi (25 years old, hot, and a wicked player)

I know there are more. Who are some of ya'll favorites?

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

I believe the best is a toss up between:

Joan Jett and Lita Ford, absolutely amazing players and musicians. Love their music!

My favorites certainly have to be:

Joan Jett (The Runnaways, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts)
Lita Ford (The Runnaways, Solo)
Nancy Wilson (Heart)
Donita Sparks (L7)
Katherine Thomas (The Great Kat)
Bonnie Raitt
Flavia Canel (Drain Sth)

I thought about putting Donita Sparks on there. She made L7 relavent.

I must say that Orianthi certainly impressed me. My kind of girl, if I were much younger and could play guitar.

Throws monkey wrench.

Apparently her guitar mojo is legit.

All good picks thor, got to say Orianthi is high on my list of favorites and Bonnie Raitt who plays a mean slide guitar also.

 

[Thorlifter]

Nice addition to the list Icepac. Charo is tremendous guitar player.

Susan Tedeschi..!!!! She may not be the guitar virtuoso that her husband, Derek Trucks, is....but she can play some mean blues and has a great voice to match.
