Favorite women guitarists?

[StratDal]

Allison Robertson of The Donnas. Her first guitar was a MIM Tele. Sure looks cool playing an Explorer too.

Ritzy Bryan of The Joy Formidable... she rips

Who are they, what’s their names? Clue us in so the majority of us can be in on it too.

They are the Mona Lisa Twins from Austria. They started out doing covers of the Beatles and other bands of that era. They do original music too.

Since it’s their day…who are your favorite female guitarists?

Some of mine in no special order:
Molly Tuttle
Susan Tedeschi
Lizzy Hale
St. Vincent (Anne Clark)
Nita Strauss
Nili Brosh - she does an awesome cover of Play With Me (Extreme)

Feist

I don't know a few of the others you and other posters mentioned but will check them out, thank!

Nice to see someone mentioned Tomo-zo! She rips!



Macyn Taylor idolizes Leo Kottke, but here she is covering Michael Hedges at the age of I don't know what but pretty sure she's barely out of high school.

Marissa Anderson plays instrumental pieces - I find her quite meditative.




By contrast here's Alice Go of Dream Wife




and I'm surprised not to have seen Tal Wilkenfeld get a mention yet. She's perhaps best known for bass - despite her diminutive stature (she looks like she can barely hold the instrument but never judge a book by the cover). She is also sh1t hot on guitar.
Here's Tal with Jeff...

Muriel Anderson!

Me Myself and I. but seriously there are many. Skill wise probably Orianthi. My favorite though is Reba.

Gabriele Reti , not so much as a guitarist but she builds great acoustic guitars ( Germany). See her on Youtube doing a duet with Brian May. He too watches youtube into the night and "disicovers" people like her and Rick Beato ( something I do when I can't sleep).
Gabriele emailed me and told me her origins , origonally South African, German parents, now residng in germany in an apartment there and builds guitars on a covered pool table! Her skills with a chisel are truly remarkable.
