This is a definite contender (thanks @User269), and the wonderful bass player.

The best, that is The Rev Billy G, has gone on record saying that Beck is the best there is.

As good as any acoustic guitarist could be!

Ana Vidoiv is not to shabby. Plays a good guitar as well.

[Mrs M]

The Rev. Billy G.

 

[Ben Reeve]

Robbie Krieger from The Doors. Much overlooked due to all the other madness that would happen in the band but incredible sound and technique.

 

[Richard A Thackeray]

Poison Ivy

Even if it wasn't for some of the.....interesting................ outfits Ivy (almost) wears, she gets credit, for playing a Gretsch G1620
(I take it you've seen the 'Like A Bad Girl' video?)

I've still got some of my Cramps vinyl

If you just wanna go on about what a **** Ike was get your own thread. As a guitarist he feckin rocked, his second instrument too really as he was firstly a superb piano player.

Dig Hefner's pipe.

Funky

Favourite guitarist? Bit like asking me to choose my favourite daughter. But if I had to it'd be Mark Knopfler. Such a cool humble chap. Great lyricist too.

Guitarist for the greatest band ever.

Too many to choose from, I'd have to nominate Buddy Guy, Samantha Fish, Mark Knopfler, Angus Young, Prince, and erm, Jess Greenberg.

The two you might not have heard of are Samantha Fish and Jess Greenberg, here they are.

Samanatha Fish

Jess Greenberg. Careful now...

... and I'll just pop this in here because everybody should have the pleasure of hearing and seeing it.
