Eddie Van Halen
The founder of hard rock band Van Halen is an absolute beast on the guitar. Gene Simmons of Kiss discovered Edward Van Halen and his brother Alex, who form one of the most successful bands of all time, fronted by David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar. In 2012, Guitar World magazine ranked Van Halen first among the greatest guitarists of all time.

Jimmy Page
Jimmy Page founded the rock band Led Zeppelin. Surprisingly, though! He was a member of The Yardbirds as well (as were Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck). As a twenty-year-old in the 1960s, he was one of the most in-demand session guitarists in the UK. On two occasions, Page was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
