1. Hetfield- Tightest Rhythm player ever as far as I'm concerned. The down-stroke king.
2. Petrucci- Alternate picking king. Versatile as all hell and a great lead player too.
3. Masvidal- Great player all around. Totally unique riffage.
4. Thordendal- Unbelievable mastery of time signatures/counting and ground-breaking style.
5. Mameli (Pestilence)- Don't know if he'd actually make my top 5, but he wont get a mention otherwise. Their new album is terrific, full of great songs, riffs and lead playing for anyone who likes trash/death type stuff.
