    I don't really know a whole lot, but here is some from back in the day and from today that shoudl be considered. I think its best to have who you woudl put in an honorable mention list rather that rate them against each other so these ae in no particular order.

    Phil Humphries
    John Newton
    John Sutherland
    Alec McIntosh
    Isaac Sutherland
    Joe Paterson
    Stevie Taylor

    I didn't really know a lot of guitar players, these are just the few I know, but if I remember any more I will shove them up. Still think it would be great to just make an alphabetical list of guitar chiels instead of starting a possible orgument

    I remember 2 bands that had great guitarists in the mid 1980s - One Card Trick from Wick and Z-Rox from Thurso. Can't remember the guitarists names but they were really good.

    And what about Ruby Bain??????? Don't think anyone has mentioned him yet.

    One Card Trick = I played with that band but it wouldnt be me !!! it would be my brother in law, Wullie Mitchell, Z Rox : David Craig ( I think ) Ruby Bain, played with High Society when he was 16 and could take off Jimmy Pages solo in Rock n roll note perfect, also breezed through AC DC songs, anything he played was effortless.
