Here's MusicRadar's countdown of 11 of the guitarists who have made the dramatic shapes their own.

am i missing andy powell,or have you?

What? No Lonnie Mack? For crying out loud........Stevie Ray thought Lonnie was a great player! And he has a flying V with the number 0007. Can't beat that with a stick!! And I agree it's a shame there is no Allen Collins either!! Maybe this is a list written by somebody real young who doesn't care about history!!
-
Rick Nielsen? You gotta be kidding!!!
But no Allen Collins?
James Hetfield might have something to say about that! -
Lack of Randy Rhoads is odd...
-
Matthias Jabs!!!! Explorer player , changed my life! wtf Scorpions rock!
-
Erm... No Randy Rhoads?
-
What? No Andy Powell or Marc Bolan ... shame on you.
-
I'm well happy to see Tim Wheeler there!
