(Guitar World) After two decades of kissing ass, Guitar World tips over a few sacred cows in a definitive guide to guitar parts that blow.

Guitarists, no matter how good they are, are bound to have the occasional bad night or hit the odd bum note. Legends like Hendrix, Page, Hammett and Harrison have had their share of uninspired moments and times where ambition exceeded their technique. It's really no big deal. Unless you're caught on tape, that is.
