Favourite Megadeth Guitarist? (Excluding Mustaine)

[Riff Raff]

Obviously excluding Mustaine, I mean of the guitar partners he has or has had over the career of Megadeth.
Chris Poland

Jeff Young

Marty Friedman

Al Pitrelli

Glen Drover

Chris Broderick

Re: Favourite Megadeth Guitarist?

Easily Chris Broderick for me. He performs all of the Friedman solos just as good as Marty did them. Mustaine's best guitar partner. Most people will likely go with Friedman which is fair enough but for me Broderick has some of the most complex solos Megadeth have ever put on albums.

As nice and as cool as Jeff Young is (has his own FB and is very social with people, even those he may not know personally) and as much as I love Rust In Peace, I have to go with Poland.

Friedman

Marty Friedman

Marty or Al. Not sure how I can pick one over the other. thing is, I like both of these guys more for their non-Megadeth work, than their playing with this band.

As far as Megadeth tunes, I'd probably have to go with Chris Poland for his ripping on Peace Sells

 

[Riff Raff]

As good a player as Al was for the band on the album I did not think much of his attempts with the classic material live. He was decent but Broderick is so far superior as a guitarist in my opinion for Megadeth anyway. He does the classic stuff just as good as the originals.

Gotta go with Marty because he is a brilliant guitarrist..I also like Poland and Broderick.
