April 30th WristScan 'Favorite Guitarists' is now off and running! . . .
. . . let's share our idols this weekend along with the watch currently on our wrist. Most of you know that my passion for the Stones exceeds that for watches and pool, so you'd expect Keith . . . . . . to be my fave, and you'd be right. But you'd be wron...
Technically, Joe Satriani is one of the best. Now, my tastes are quite eclectic. I love Flamenco guitarists, such as Paco de Lucia. Or some Rock Guitarists and then the choice is large.
Steve Stevens, Rick Ocasek, John Frusciante ( Red Hot Chili Peppers ) are among those who come to my mind, right now. Of course, we could add some legends such as Eric Clapton. I also like Cat Stevens a lot! Among all these rock Guitarists, it would be a ...
I've mentioned this before in passing, but since you've brought up Steve . . .
. . . it's worth passing along again: I ran into him at a café on Sunset about five or six years ago. Would've asked him for a photo especially for you, Nicolas, but didn't out of respect for his privacy. Also one of my favorites. ...
Well, I never actually met him, I was just at the same café . . .
. . . where he was having late-night supper with his family. But if you know him, all the better.
I was thinking of California Jed . . .
. . . who happens to be in the entertainment field. He posted a picture once of himself with Gene Simmons.
We share the love for the 1675 reference and Paco de Lucia ...
... wizardry with his guitar dear Nicolas! But you always scare the hell out of me each time you share that Devilish shot of your GMT!! 🤣🤣🤣 Buen fin de semana mi amigo! Abrazos!! Abel
It is my favorite instrument and there are a lot of great players. If I have to say one, Paco de Lucia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqMfv5IVeZc
When I was a chlid I was raptured when seeing my brother playing the spanish guitar. As an ACDC admirer, I want to mention Angus Young. Great weekend to everybody. ...
Thanks . . .
. . . for the introduction. Wasn't aware of him until just now. Christopher Parkening, on the other hand . . . . . . is a long-term favorite. Art
my favorite is BB king from far
he played (a lot) with E.Clapton pic by the late Noodia (watch is mine indeed) ...
Laurent may be gone . . .
. . . but not forgotten, Pierre. His passion for UG foreshadowed its current popularity. As for guitarists: Clapton's on everyone's top ten list. Saw him perform once, but even better, drove next to him for a mile or two east on Sunset Boulevard many year...
Not only the best string wizard
He is the best artist in my opinion. Clapton. Erik, slow hand. Above Bowie Above Mercury Above Steve Above Hendrix Above Bonamassa Above anything. The king of the super band Cream.
Lorenzo Micheli
The greatest classical player of all time in my opinion. He is my main role model and source of inspiration for my playing. There are faster and louder players (both of which are technically demanding in classical) but he has the phrasing and articulation...
Another guitarist I've never encountered . . .
. . . before. Fabulous player. Reminds me . . . . . . of Sigi.
Sigi is far more versatile
But Lorenzo is a unique master of his particular craft. Something to love in both!
My vote is for
Jeff Beck. No video to post or story to tell, but I have a couple of pics to add to this weeks theme. Kev ...
Hey, I thought you were taking up bass! Looks like you're branching out, Kev . . .
. . . and thanks for sharing. Art
Yes,
I have made the switch to lay down the low end, however I still have two guitars. The one pictured here and a Yamaha classical. K
Two categories... On Earth... In Heaven... in no particular order...
On Earth... Al Di Meola John McLaughlin - I have seen a Royal Oak on his wrist years ago... Jeff Beck Eric Clapton Jimmy Page David Gilmour In Heaven... Duane Allman Jimi Hendrix George Harrison Pace De Lucia I could list several more from both categories...

Hell yeah buddy, what a perfect pairing!!!
Your Psychedelic Vetehinen would be well at home on Jimi’s wrist... very well done!
I still can't get over Jimi playing to a nearly deserted audience . . .
. . . at Woodstock. He was the headliner, but due to delays he didn't come on stage 'til dawn Monday. Surreal . . .
I see a revival of Vinyl and other old school things lately.
Especially under young people . My daughter daily wears her 60s rolex 26mm and loves it . Also retro sneakers etc .
Fun theme this week, Art!
My fave guitarist has to be Slash🤨🎸. He’s so many things that I am not and rips on the guitar. GnR ushered out the trash that was hair metal (though it looked liked fun, I was too young to indulge in the excesses of the time). In honor of Slash, I present...
... and if anyone needs a musical shot of Espresso
Here’s another Air Guitar thrash session with the soothing sounds of SLAYER!!!!!!
Had two brief conversations with Slash: once in the kitchen of The Rainbow Bar and Grill . . .
. . . and another when he was sitting between two adjoining tables, literally inches away. When he noticed I was uncomfortable by his proximity, he turned and said, "Sorry, man," in a humble tone and moved away. Then there were the three times I watched h...
Very cool, Art!
Having read his autobiography he seems like just a very mellow and sweet guy.
This weeks contribution, remarkable musician and watchmaker
Eddie VH doing his thing! So. Cal. Sunshine to honor Eddie Van Halen RIP. HAGWE All, Cheers, Tim ...
Mine too, first USA rock band introduced to me at 13 in UK growing up naively 😉
Running with the Devil was an anthem for me, played over and over again. McGonigle bros. are genius watchmakers and top guys too. Cheers, Tim
Oefff I remember Eddy VH from back then. Amazing artist and also born in Holland .
That watch keeps me awake at night 🤯. So amazing and beautiful
Thanks Ron! This is pretty special stuff🙏
The Tuscar Banu is exquisite and the finish and guys behind it are tops. Cheers, Tim
Eddie's technical mastery on guitar . . .
. . . matches John's with a lathe. Top of their respective games, both. Not many have tapped metal/glam guitarists in this thread yet. My favorite might be Tom Keifer. Never saw either Cinderella or Van Halen in concert. Regrets aplenty . . .
Thanks Art!
I too never saw VH in concert, but the closest I come is a dear friend, Jimmy Hamm opened for them with his band back in the early 80’s in Hollywood! Said Eddie would play with his back to the audience, so as to not reveal how he did his wizardry in the e...
The original ...
Hello Art and friends, I have many favourite guitarists but without this legend many of the others may not have been inspired to play the way they do. Link Wray has been named by many of the guitar greats as their inspiration. Neil Young, Jimmy Page, Iggy...
If you're ever at one of my Wednesday 3-ball tournaments . . .
. . . there's a 99% chance you'll hear Rumble on the jukebox. Not to mention a 98% chance of hearing Duane Eddy . . . . . . and Johnny Kidd. Dick Dale, though . . . . . . drops to 50/50.
I've long felt . . .
. . . Rumble . . . . . . should replace Hail to the Chief when the Marine Band plays for the President. 🇺🇸
Superb shots of your Zenith Daytona dear Captain!
And interesting to know about your musical tastes! Hagwe my dear friend!! Abel
Great theme! I'm a life long lover of the guitar and great guitar-ists. The longer I think about it the longer the list gets but here's some of my favorites. T-Bone Walker, Freddie, Albert and BB
(King). SRV, Steve Morse, Chet Atkins, Paco De Lucia, Mark Knopfler, Jimi Page, Jimi Hendrix, Al Dimiola, Jeff Beck (!II) and John Mcglaughlin (!!!). Hope to find time for some new images but for now I do have these... ...
David Gilmour and ‘The Edge’ are two of my faves...
and new for wristscan this week, my Aqua Terra 18k red gold and steel. First pictures, still taking all the stickers off the bracelet. ...
Very cool and thought provoking
thread this week Art! Thanks for all you do here Sir!! I am a Clapton fan from way back and saw him once in LA, during the Cream days. Best to you all, Tim The Bell&Ross was racing across town in the heat, liked the light it captures. 😎 ...
