Prince of course. Jimmy is a fake ass wannabe.

Years ago, I KNEW nobody past or present could touch Prince. Period. With perspective, one realizes it's impossible to make such comparisons. All I will say is Jimmy Page gets his due and then some. Prince has yet to be WIDELY considered among the guitar greats, which is a shame.

Have you ever heard "Summer Breeze" By the Isley Brothers?
That is some crazy guitar work. One of my favorite solos of all time.

Summer Breeze and That Lady...yo' damn right!

Ernie Isley rules...

(in his own, self endulgent, over-extended soloist kind of way)


Oh, and Prince is technically a better guitarist.

Better than Page is or was.

Jimmy Page is far superior ... when it comes to play ROCK.
Prince is the coolest when it comes to play FUNK.
Jimmy isn't funky (the grunge)
Prince's rock ain't kickin' hard.

Jimmy has a foolish double-neck guitar,
Prince has far more idiot guitars (which all sound less than the Fender ... so quit the bullshit and stop making an ass of yourself: dump those foolish guitars)

I wouldn't mind seeing Prince play a PRS, Les Paul or Strat. Could probably give him a killer tone.



Jimmy Page is more blues based. Prince can flip thru jazz, funk, blues and rock. I don't care which one is better, but I rather hear and see Prince do his thing.

Jimmy Page is pretty fuckin excellent and I think plays a whole different style... but honestly , pause to take a sip of KoolAid... Prince can handle anything Page has done. I think at least!

I've heard two different versions of his cover of "Whole Lotta Love" .It's good, but not as good as the original IMO.

Honestly I cannot compare them to one another.

if I really push it I would have to say Prince is better all round, and that's only because I have heard him play

accoustic (as good as Clapton)
rythm / blues (as good as BB)

but no one can play like Jimi did!
