Eddie Van Halen

The member of Van Halen, a hard rock band, is a total guitar beast. Discovered by Gene Simmons of Kiss, Edward Van Halen and his brother Alex went on to create one of the best-selling bands of all time, fronted along the way by David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar. Van Halen was named number one in Guitar World magazine’s ranking of the best guitarists of all time in 2012. Unfortunately, on October 6, 2020, he passed.

Jimmy Page

The manager of the rock band Led Zeppelin is Jimmy Page. But guess, still, what? He’s even been to The Yardbirds (as were Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck). He was among the most sought-after session guitarists in Britain as a twenty-year-old in the 1960s. Now 77, Page has been inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice.
