Ranked # 2 of Top 10 Worst Dressed Guitarists

Guitar World picks the worst dressed axmen in the history of rock and roll!

By Robert Cherry

Keith Richards' scarves and skull ring, Jimmy Page's dragon-embroidered silk pj's, Slash's top hat-all are great examples of how signature apparel can transform an excellent guitarist into a rock icon. But when does a trademark look cross the line into the absurd or criminally distasteful? All too often, it seems, all too often.

10) George Lynch
9) Scorpions
8) Kurt Cobain
7) Dave Navarro
6) Ace Frehley
5) Wes Borland
4) Angus Young
3) Buckethead 

 

 

2) Ted Nugent
One word: loincloth. In the Seventies, the Nuge was not only one of the worst-dressed rockers, he was also one of the least dressed. All the better, one imagines, to perform the wango tango.
