Re: Favorite Guitarists?
Jessie Pintado was a great guitarist. I think that he added the "grind" to Napalm's post-Lee/Bill sound. Mitch has picked up the reins since Jessie passed (especially starting with Smear Campaign), but who knows if even he'll return to the band in the future...

Re: Favorite Guitarists?
Smear Campaign is a favorite of mine. I also think Bill Steer from Napalm Death and Carcass was amazing too.
