Not in the choices: Dave Mustaine I believe he did most lead guitars way back the early albums(and the solo's are awesome ) But for me:(with Albums) Friedman Poland Broderick Young Pitrelli Drover (without) Kerry King Dave Mustaine without a doubt is one of the best if not the best metal guitarist that sings at the same time, of all time. But I excluded him for this poll. As a matter of fact, Dave Mustaine writes most of the solos of Megadeth but delegates them to his other lead guitarist especially during live performances and humbly claims as the rhythm guitarist for Deth (my two cents go to the idea that he's trying to go head to head with Hetfield instead of Hammett).
Kerry King was with Deth back in the day but would have been the rhythm guitarist if it transpired further (as per an interview with David Ellefson), while Dave would have been the sole lead guitars/vocals. Nonetheless King is amazing. You might wanna watch his jam session with Megadeth (on the song Rattlehead) on Youtube. The event was just last year (2010).
