Hate All those hair metal bands. %26amp; for some reason, I have a tough time considering Eddie VH as one of those guys. VH came around in the late 70s, before the whole hair thing exploded.

Who the best guitar player of the 1980's hair metal bands?

it would be a tie ... George Lynch and Jake E. Lee ..however some would like to say that Dokken, Lynch Mob, Ozzy and Badlands which Jake E. Lee was in are not really hair bands.

If I had to pick a true HAIR band.. such as poison, faster pussy cat etc.. I guess I would have to pick C.C. DeVille of Poison however he could of been alot better without the arrogant attitude and drugs.

Who the best guitar player of the 1980's hair metal bands?

I wouldn't consider Van Halen or GnR a hair metal band, like some of these others are doing. Eddie Van Halen was the best rock guitarist of the 80s though. But for hair bands, C.C. DeVille of Poison was the most talented. Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi a close second. Check out Richie's solo albums if you get a chance. They are great!
