This thread has made me realise I’m so out of step with most people in this community. That’s my problem, not anyone else’s, but it is quite thought provoking. Still, I do love guitars, so that’s good. 

@camf That's cryptic!  So who do you think is cool?  I say that out of curiosity, not to be argumentative.

I wasn't really trying to be cryptic. I just naively thought that my own teenage icons might be better represented on here, but not one of them has appeared so far. I was just surprised, in that way when you assume your own influences would be sure to be shared by other people in your generation. Over the years, when I've been asked about influences or people I've admired to aspired to, I've always pulled out the same half-dozen names but nobody has mentioned any of them. I'm not going to list them because I'm interested to see if any of them eventually pop up. 

I’ve included Motörhead and The Wombles, I’m not sure what’s left really.

OK. You get the first one. Never heard of Motorhead though.
