Eric Clapton is very good, but Peter Green is better.

Mark Knopfler is very good, but David Gilmour is better.

And yes, Jimi Hendrix is the best.
Yet when Jimi was asked "So what does it feel like to be the 'best' guitarist in the world" he replied "I dunno you'd better ask Rory Gallagher"

Eric Bell, anyone? I always thought he was under rated.

I would go for MK over EC. But, one of the best guitarists I have seen play is Mick Abrahams, member of many bands including Blodwyn Pig.

I've met Mick Abrahams several times. He lives in Milton Keynes, and when I had a flat there he lived close by and was always happy to stop and chat. Saw him play several times in MK too. Quite poorly now, apparently. Heart problems or somesuch.

Who?

Thin Lizzy's first guitarist. He really matured as a player as the albums ticked off, and by Vagabonds of the Western World he was a master. Indeed, vagabonds is some of the finest rock guitar anywhere, including as it does the full version of The Rocker.
