10 Greatest Guitar Duos In Hard Rock

10. Myles Kennedy/Mark Tremonti - Dream Theater

After the year 2000, it felt like the era of the guitar god had started to fall by the wayside. While you still had some veteran acts still making waves on the scene, the influx of garage bands were less focused on trying to melt your face with complex guitar solos. Once Alter Bridge rose to prominence though, fans were given some amazing licks all over again.

For years, it always felt like Mark Tremonti had been kept under wraps under the mantle of Creed, which led to a resurgence of great licks across Alter Bridge's catalog. Even with Tremonti's many different layers of shred, the inclusion of Myles Kennedy behind the mic and the fretboard made for some amazing technical moments. While Tremonti is definitely the better player, the way he and Kennedy interlock for dueling leads and the occasional back and forth solo is much more satisfying than Creed could have hoped for.

With Kennedy also providing vocals, most of these songs sound like just the kind of powerful rock music that was needed amid the nu metal slosh dominating the charts. From a technical standpoint, Tremonti is also one of the more awe-inspiring guitarists of the modern age, coming up with licks that most six-stringers would kill to say they wrote. Even in an age where the guitar itself feels nearly obsolete, Alter Bridge still aren't afraid to fly the flag for the heavier side of the guitar.
