These are some of my favorite guitar riffs see if you agree with my choices. My choices are all played on electric guitars.
You can’t talk about great guitar riffs without talking about probably the most recognize guitar riff of all time “Smoke On The Water” by Deep Purple. This riff tells you it doesn’t have to be complicated to be good as this is one of the easiest riffs to play. Another riff that you never get tired of hearing is “Whole Lotta Love” by Led Zepplin. It is played by Jimmy Page on a Les Paul electric guitar and 100w Marshall head amp.
One more great riff to mention is a song written by Ozzie Osbourne, Randy Rhoads, and Bob Daisley, “Crazy Train”. With Ozzie on vocals and Bob on bass the guitar riff played by Randy Rhoads is probably one of the hardest to play, but man does it sound good.
