Hayley McLean: Fender spot ten Guitar goddeses


It’s no secret that female guitar players usually don’t make the cut in the “Greatest Guitarists of All Time” lists published in many major music magazines. You’ll see maybe one or two (Bonnie Raitt, Joni Mitchell, Joan Jett usually get the nods), and that’s about it.

That’s why we compiled a list of 10 instrumental guitar videos spotlighting 10 righteously talented female guitarists who can tap, fingerpick, shred, and wield their instruments with the best of them.

And it’s worth stressing that all the clips presented here are instrumental in order to highlight each lady’s remarkable guitar chops rather than vocal prowess (which is also considerable).

Putting this list together was no easy feat! There’s no shortage of female talent out there, so keep an eye out for future articles showcasing the ladies.

1. Hayley McLean
2. Gretchen Menn
3. Nita Strauss
4. Nili Brosh
5. Kaki King
