Hi there, folks!

I like to listen and play music. Music always helps me when I'm having my ups and downs and it definitely has influenced me when I was younger.
So, here's a little puzzle for you. All you have to do is name the guitarist or guitarists on the picture. It is that simple. All of them are famous, I would even say legen... wait for it... dary, and I am sure that you will have no problems with naming them :) CLICK!

Rules are the same as usual. No hints, no link sharing. The puzzle is simple enough.
Reward: link to 6 bundled GAs from DIG 45 bundle + 1 unbundled AAA title.

Giveaways end in about one week (November 5, 2015 1:00 pm GMT).

Best of luck!

Oh, I made sure that most images can't be reverse searched. Sorry, but I think that you will find another way to name them ;)

Answers:

Q1: Slash
Q2: Keith Richards
Q3: Brian May
Q4: John Frusciante
Q5: Jimi Hendrix
Q6: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck
Q7: B.B. King
Q8: Buckethead
Q9: Frank Zappa
Q10: Jimmy Page
Q11: David Gilmour

Thank you for participation! :)

I see that a lot of people get stuck on Q4, and I decided to add a hint / hints tomorrow.
But for now I have a video for you :)

Okay, here's a hint to narrow down the guitarists list:

  • Most of the guitarists in the puzzle are in the 100 Greatest Guitarists list by Rolling Stones Magazine. In fact all of them are there, except one.

And hint for Q4:

Okay. Correction, I've managed to solve 6 of them. But seriously, some of them were showing as wrong answer due to small mistakes like missing comma mark or an extra space.

Interesting puzzle if you're into rock music, thanks.
Are you planning on adding hints? I'm stuck on questions 4, 6, 10 an 11.
In Q6 I know the guy on the left, but not the guy on the right. Is Mr. C a featured guest there? Or is it a reunion of some of his earlier projects?

Maybe I will add hints for some of the questions tomorrow. I will look on which questions people got stuck most.
Mr. C here is a host of a guitar festival on a Caribbean island. I hope you can work with that :)

This hint leads me to the same "Mister C" I found by myself, but I must be missing something since people have solved the puzzle (tried "firstname1 lastname1 firstname2 lastname2", and "lastname1 lastname2").
Anyway, there are a few that I have no idea who they are, I'm quite sure not to solve the whole thing :)

I honestly didn't think that it would be such a problem. I'll keep that in mind for possible future puzzles :)

I was unsure of Mr C, which caused more problems when I had different ideas for names, and at the same time tried different kinds of punctuation. It wasn't too bad though, just 5-6 guesses before I got it right.

reads "don't forget the comma"
reaction: "ARRRGHHH"

haha, I got the names but got rejected multiple times TT_TT
finally got it, thanks for the formatting tip as I would have never guessed otherwise

Alright, I figured out who it is playing with Mr C. It was really easy, and I can't believe that I haven't saw that earlier!
Also can you believe that I mistook Q11 for Roger Waters? Lol!
Only question left is Q4. I have absolutely zero idea who that man is :(

Say whaaat?! Roger Waters? XD

I guess he's a (semi-?)modern guitarist, and potentially a tattoo on his arm could be a hint, but... no. Got no idea who he is.

I mainly play guitar and bass. Started learning keyboards and music theory not long time ago to help my improvisation skill
Used to play with my mates a lot, but now we are in different cities :(

aww :( would've loved to learn keyboard...well piano but damn, not enough space. tried getting into music theory but holyfucks it bored me to tears :D learned a bit of the basics though, enough to pop a lame-ish solo every now and then xD

Yeah... Music theory can be boring at times. Like all the time :)

True. Without a paid lesson to go to and learn for I don't have any drive to learn it. I've been having a book about guitar theory lying around forever. But why study all that stuff when that single blues scale covers most of my needs? :D

I've no idea how you spelled Q7 (you should use wikipedia formatting)

Q4 is easy if you know the band

No idea on Q3-5-10-11, don't remember the one of the left on Q6

Ha, I was adding a logical extra space, but it seems wiki doesn't add such space. Still no idea on the rest.
