The top 10 unsung guitarists are…
Everyone has seen the many top-guitarist lists touted by magazines, TV shows and various websites. Most people can even name several if not most of the players appearing in these often-predictable lists.
For a change of pace then, we’ve compiled a list of ten cutting-edge guitarists — from up-and-comers to seasoned pros who aren’t widely known by name — whose names rarely appear on the usual top-gun lists, but whose talents nonetheless merit widespread recognition as we see (and hear) it.

If you’ve ever seen him live, you’ll know why Greg Koch made our list. -
Greg Koch’s new CD “Strat’s Got Your Tongue” is now available!
Outstanding instrumental guitar disc by this phenomenal world-renowned guitarist featuring 9 tracks of stellar, sophisticated, blues-based, “old-school” six string mojo of the highest level that defines world-class guitar rock artistry & new levels of musical insanity. “Strat’s Got Your Tongue” is a re-mastered Grooveyard Records re-issue disc. A long out of print essential guitar rock classic that includes a deep, profound unreleased Bonus Track.
Greg “Gristle King” Koch is a legit true axemaster in every damn sense of the word who is highly respected in the guitar community and endorsed by Fender Guitars. A stellar prolific guitar player’s “guitarist” who shreds to the beat of a different drummer with a vast musical melting pot smorgasbord cacophony of linear guitar god brilliance. If you worship mind-blowing, serious guitar rock mojo, dig deep and smell the gristle.
Lets face it, Greg Koch is an insane musical genius and veritable maestro on the guitar who has composed his ultimate instrumental guitar symphony with the mega-awesome “Strats Got Your Tongue” disc. A bad-ass brilliant display of orgasmic six string gristle.

Welcome to the new site, about the old site and DUDE! Gristleman is now on Flickr and Youtube!
Welcome to the new site. We’ve taken this thing into overdrive (literally!) with all the new functionality. You guys, the fans, can sign up, comment on Greg’s news and blogs…there’s links to Greg’s Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, the whole ball of wax.
We do apologize for abruptly switching. We know all you guys had been members over at the NING site, but NING as a company is changing and they’re completely revamping the way their sites work, so we chose to rebuild this bad boy in a whole new way on a more stable platform. In short? This site is here to stay.
Let us know what you like! Let us know what you don’t like. You can send all those rants and raves to chad@gregkoch.com. And yes…we are still working on the music player. We should have an update on that shortly.
Ain’t technology grand? Come check out Greg’s new Flickr page. Tag yourself if you’re in a photo or if you just wanna be in a photo…watch a slideshow…share Greg’s photos…or even ADD YOUR OWN!
Greg will even be able to add his own photos from at home or on the road. LOOK OUT! http://www.flickr.com/photos/gristleman/
Greg even has his own Youtube page now. Go say hello! http://www.youtube.com/gristleman1
Thanks everybody!
