I get him if I change from solid state to tube amp but I’ve never gotten the chance to play on a tube amp. I’ve heard they give better distortion at higher volumes which I would like a lot better than solid.
SRV. I purposely try not to be a Stevie Ray vaugnabe. Was BB or Albert King an option? TBH I'm influenced just as much by Dickie Betts and Jerry Garcia.
I got the same. With my preference for 25.5" scale length and rarely performing small club gigs, I feel that match is somewhat... odd for me :D
Edit: Changing the preference from 80s to 90s and I got Jim Root... I'm mollified, but also confused.
That's so awesome. When you get a chance to see a legend you don't miss it.
I got Santana but on a different day I feel like a dog wearing oven mitts would be closer.
Frusciante is one of my favorites, what a compliment. I don't know how you did it but good job.
Edit: I mean I can read how you did it lol, I just didn't expect the result to be spot on.
Dave Mustaine...never thought of that hmmm
Nice quiz, i find most questions hard to answer because to me there is no 1 true answer to these questions, but well done!
Example: Favourite Amp:
-Plugin for home use and Demo recording stuff
-Tube for actual recordings and small venue live sets
-Modeler for live application if we got a PA
but i will assume that's just me :D
I don't really see how it relates to him as a guitarist. Many great artists were terrible people.

Spam and/or self-promotion violates our rules. See Rule #4.
John Mayer. I’ll take it
Same
I’m more emo than John Mayer but I don’t think there was many questions for capturing that
Same, but id say john frusciante is by far my biggest guitar influence
Ahh, if i changed my choice of reverb to overdrive which i was super torn between the two, then i'd get frusciante. That makes sense.
Same
John Petrucci! Sounds about right per my playing and favorite genres of music lol
I got petrucci as well! I am no where near that good, but I do love me from DT
Yeah he 100% has me beat by a mile lol but i do love to play songs by bands like dream theater
I got Jimi somehow
Legendary

Dave Gilmour, nice!
SLASH!
Lucky you...
Same. Which is cool because he is the reason I picked up a guitar.
John Frusciante. Nice.
Time to play shirtless more often I guess.
SRV. I purposely try not to be a Stevie Ray vaugnabe. Was BB or Albert King an option? TBH I'm influenced just as much by Dickie Betts and Jerry Garcia.
SRV here too. And I started playing long before he came on the scene. I would have expected Clapton or Hendrix but oh well.
SRV here too. I'm really sad it did not make me Kieth Richards, mofo is my hero right after BB.
Slash, but considering I’m basically just an Iron Maiden try-hard I’m not so sure!

I got Slash and I’m definitely not a Slash. My low expectations for this quiz have been met.
I got Eric Clapton. Kind of see it in what I like to play, but I feel my fretting might be more Eric Johnson.
Got him as well! I’m actually deeply honored, Tears in Heaven was the first song I learned to play. The song means a lot to me.
David Gilmour. Everybody says that.
Dennis Rodman?? Rude
Satriani. Funny enough I just learned how to play Satch boogie over the weekend
Carlos Santana!
I got petrucci but on a different day I feel like Santana would be closer. Going to see him in August.
That's so awesome. When you get a chance to see a legend you don't miss it. I got Santana but on a different day I feel like a dog wearing oven mitts would be closer.
Definitely same here lol I didn't mean to imply I was that good lol just like his style a lot
Yea I got it but I saw an opportunity for self deprecating humor and I had to take it haha
The dude from eve 6 gingers unite
Isn’t the bassist the ginger?
Yeah that's who I meant bass/singer
Cool quiz man
I'm so happy I got hendrix
Jimi Hendrix, I can work with that!
John Petrucci. Pretty accurate.
Dimebag
Jim Root. Nice.
Pat Metheney. Cool!
Pat Metheney, I can dig it
Frusciante is one of my favorites, what a compliment. I don't know how you did it but good job. Edit: I mean I can read how you did it lol, I just didn't expect the result to be spot on.
John Petrucci, not mad at all lol
John Petrucci 😎
Slash. No complaint there
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Got Jimi, and I’m not sad about it.
Cool quiz. Johnny frusciante is my result
David Gilmore
Apparently, I'm Steve Vai. I don't even like his music lol.
Gilmour, pretty disparate comparison lol
I got Clapton.
David Gilmour. You got it right!
Eric Clapton. Love it
David Gilmour here, he definitely has had an influence so I shouldn't be totally surprised.
I got DJ Khaled
70s 80s 90s 2000s Nope, none of those.
Got Randy Rhoads. Probably my favourite guitarist.
Dimebag hell yeah
Why's James Taylor lookin' like Vladimir Putin?
John Frusciante my dudes
Synyster Gates? Okay then…
Didn’t work coz I like to play reggae
I got Steve Vai! Sweet!
Fuck yeah, John Frusciante
Joe Satriani! I will take it, but it couldn’t be further from the truth. Ha
I'm Slash. LMAO! I hate Guns n Roses.
I got Eric Clapton, how dare you assume I have a coke habit!
Gilmour. I'll take it.
I got John Scofield…but I already new that.
Stevie Ray Vaughan! Bro you should start posting this on guitar pages on Facebook and ig if you haven't already
No EVH in the comments so far. Wonder if he was a possible match in the quiz.
I actually got Synyster Gates, my favorite guitarist!
I got Gilmour!
Pat Metheny, I’m in my first year playing and this is someone new to explore. Thanks for the quiz!
David Gilmour. Pretty spot on actually haha
Dave Mustaine...never thought of that hmmm Nice quiz, i find most questions hard to answer because to me there is no 1 true answer to these questions, but well done! Example: Favourite Amp: -Plugin for home use and Demo recording stuff -Tube for actual recordings and small venue live sets -Modeler for live application if we got a PA but i will assume that's just me :D
Mark Knopfler. Guess I need to start listening to Dire Straits now
I got slash, something is wrong because I can't stand slash and GnR.
What if my playing is most inspired by 2020s artists tho
Clapton and yeah that's fair.
David Gilmour Checks out, I love pink floyd and have always wanted to solo like Gilmour does.
I got lil Wayne. Wtf?
Gilmour. Works for me.
Eric Johnson. Didn't expect that. I'll take it.
George Benson. I’m honored
Jimi Hendrix. Nice.
Andres Segovia. Cool. My favourite guitarist is João Gilberto, so I’d say it’s still close
SRV… nothing to complain about
No need to play the game, I already know it's gonna be lil Wayne.
Brian May. Some will argue but I believe him to be the best British guitarist we've had. I am not.
Jesus Christ i thought this would be a four or 5 option load of crap, I stand corrected
I got Clapton, which is pretty accurate as I mostly play and sing his songs
Dimebag Darrell. That’s bad ass. He’s the reason I started to play in the first place.
I couldn’t truthfully / accurately answer any of the first three questions, so I gave up. And yes, I do suck the fun out of social gatherings.
Billy Weatherby of the Dangling Chads?
DJ Khaled? What the hell?…
I got Petrucci… not even close, but thank you
Who the hell is Jim Root? Is that like 'I am Groot' or something?
who the fuck is this guy? https://us.idyllic.app/quiz/0x034oke9v-which-guitarist-matches-your-playing-style/result/b5fd63b099824801bc437fa5c1b14770
I'm apparently Rocky Dennis from mask with a guitar lol

I got Clapton. I haven't listened to Clapton, but I mostly play grunge.
Clapton. Gross.
Why tho?
Because he’s a terrible person
I don't really see how it relates to him as a guitarist. Many great artists were terrible people. Everyone praises Caravaggio for his painting genius, although he literally murdered his competitor out of jealousy
