Phil Keaggy

"Phil Keaggy is an excellent all-around guitarist who has been a part of the CCM scene for over two decades. Born and raised in Ohio in a Catholic family of ten, Keaggy always loved music and spent hours listening to such singers as Johnny Ray and Elvis Presley. He began imitating the latter as young as age four. Keaggy was also exposed to other kinds of music and became well versed in classical. His first guitar was a late-'50s Gretsch Anniversary model; at age ten his father bought him a Sears Silvertone, and by the end of fifth grade, he was playing in front of his entire school. Three years later, Keaggy was playing professionally with the Squires..." - AllMusicGuide.com

Remember this is a poll based on a guitarists overall versatility and ability. NOT LYRICS! Too many people don't even want to give Phil a listen when they find out he is a Christian artist. Phil is the most amazing guitarist I have ever seen. He is capable of blazing fast runs on an electric (or acoustic) guitar or the most beautiful fingerpicking (with one finger missing) you've ever heard. NOBODY can compare with his looping abilities, he his amazingly versatile. Pinky volume swells, e-bow, tapping harmonics, sweep picking, tasteful whammy bar licks, muting techniques. All I can say is go see him live, it could just scar you up for life!Check out these videos of him and see for yourself.
