Kim Thayil

Thayil is best known as the lead guitarist of the famous band Soundgarden, based in Seattle. He is the founder of the band along with singer Chris Cornell and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. "I think Soundgarden is a pretty good band and I'm a fine guitarist. I'm not God, but I'm certainly not average. I feel very comfortable with the fact that not many other people can do what I do on guitar. I think my guitar is happy with the way I play it’’, says Thayil. The Rolling Stone magazine named him in the list of greatest guitarists of all time.
