Trey probably has the most ability but rarely performs to maximum potential.

Herring had less ability but doesn't hold back. See Jazz is Dead

I think Herring might be more technically skilled but Trey does a better job of expanding his sound. But to be fair, I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Can you provide links or evidence to back this up?

Herring is obviously more talented

Jerry is worse than both of them.

He wouldn't even be a top 5 jam band guitarist if he were still alive

Right now... Herring IMO

They have very different styles though, so it's hard to say one is better.

more soul and knowledge of songs and music than herring and trey combined. dude was a walking encyclopedia of knowledge abt real songs of america. I have seen all of them many times. JG was hands down superior- TO ME. and most people I know who saw all of these guys.

jerry FOUNDED the jam band scene. go listen to some old shows, bruh. it's pretty fantastic. that's a really shitty blanket statement you made about him not being in the top 5. laughable. he is the daddy.

i don't get the ignorance here. it is evident that JG was a freaking guitar god. Trey and Jimmy are fine guitarists- understood. but man- the breadth of the styles and influences JG brought to the table is hard to surpass.
