These are the Top 100 Metal Guitarists according to Guitar World. If you disagree, it is not a matter of opinion, this quiz is only based on this list. Of course every individual would have a different opinion. For some answers more than one guitarist is an answer because some from the same band were grouped together. Please tell me if I made and mistakes and good luck!

Good to see Jimi Hendrix not #1 like every other top guitarist list. #12 is pretty fair for him.

You should put the source in the quiz notes at the top, not here in the comments. Also, while we're on Guitar World, while I'm a fan of Neil Yound and am proud he's Canadian and all, I'd hardly classify him as hard rock. Rock, definitely, but he seems out of place on this list.

Mutford, I definitely agree about Neil Young, I was a bit thrown off when I saw his name myself, and will do with the source.
