10 Most Underrated Rock Guitarists Of All Time

Ever since the end of the '70s, it's become less of a hassle worrying about who's playing guitar in the Rolling Stones. Since Keith Richards has settled into his role as guitar legend and being an actual living vampire, there's no real reason why you should care about anyone else behind the fretboard. Then again, it's not like Ronnie Wood can't give him a run for his money at every turn.

Long before even getting the gig with the Stones, Wood was already making waves in groups like the Faces, with the same kind of blues rock swagger that he would go on to use with the Stones. While you could call a lot of his style being the descendent of someone like Clapton or even Chuck Berry, there's still a handful of licks that people tend to forget over the years. On something like She's So Cold, Ronnie proves to be a master at knowing his lane as a guitar player, playing just the right kind of jangly opening to fill out the sound while Keef takes the lead.

I mean, many people forget that this is also a guy who can share a stage with someone like Jeff Beck and be able to hold his own night after night. If nothing else, Wood still has that trademark mojo that made the Stones so alluring to begin with.
