Covid boredom brought me to the guitar – with lots of YouTube time. Some more scenic than others.
Which would you prefer working your fingerboard? (If you really focus, you may notice they have really good hands.)
The blondie Sophie Lloyd: youtube.com
Or the brunette Larissa Liveir: youtube.com
Both gals on the YouTube links are good guitarists, and both are very cute, but Sophie Lloyd is gorgeous with those curves pressing into the curves of her guitar!
I have a lot of favorite female fretboard masters. Two categories here: 1. Those that can play and are hot, and 2. Those that can play, but are not that hot or perhaps hot but quite a bit older.
Group 1 - Orianthi, Samantha Fish, Ana Popovic, Grace Potter (way hot), Lizzy Hale, Ally Venable
Group 2 - Joanne Shaw Taylor, Nancy Wilson, Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi, Sheryl Crow
I'm going to go with the Bond Quartet.
Never really thought of any woman as being in the same league with rock guitarist greats like Hendrix, Clapton and Page.
This reminds me of Rolling Stone, which is so woke they put out a list of 100 great rock guitar players and sprinkled in a bunch of women you never heard of.
Yes, Bonnie Raitt and Sheryl Crow can strum a guitar, but so can Willie Nelson. No one would say any of them are known as “guitarists”.
Bonnie Raitt is an excellent guitarist, especially on slide. you obviously haven't been paying attention.
PJ Harvey is a pretty good player, too, and sexy as hell. youtube.com
Nancy Wilson from Heart was really hot back in the day.
Orianthi- mattsguitar.shop
of all listed above picks would be ally venable and nancy wilson.
others to check out if curious: britt lightning charo
if it was to based on skill and not looks the best female rock guitarist ever is jennifer batten.
Sophie Lloyd looks pretty intriguing.
^nancy wilson - female version of jimmy page, which makes sense as zep was one of heart's main influences. she even played a little bit of babe i'm going to leave you during that intro.
Damn. Both have real talent. As something of a musician myself, I don't know how they can keep on smiling even when they're ripping up the fretboard.
Rebecca Thumber
O.K. she's a violinist. Does she have talent!
There are actually lots of excellent female guitarists, but as OP mentioned, female guitarists are judged by their looks well as their musical talent, compared to male guitarists who no one cares what they look like. I actually think Sophie Lloyd’s beautiful tits detract from her musicianship.
azdd, don't forget about Sue Foley.
Tal Wilkenfield, or Esperanza...since I'm a bass player, I thought I'd just toss her into the frey and my lap. :D
Sophie, despite preferring brunettes. In reality, I'd choose Nita Strauss over them both.
