Not sure about the best....but one of my all time favorites is someone that doesn't get nearly enough credit for his talent as a guitarist.....Vince Gill I saw him live about 20 years ago (sat in the front row) and I was mesmerized watching him play.

In my opinion Mr. Gilmour has one of the best and most soulful sounds out there..the video is long but worth listening to. Especially if you play guitar

@JohnnyNashville, aka "Johnny Knox," you can't not mention "Jimi Hendrix" in this thread, bud.

Does "Tiny Tim's" ukulele count?

You know, when he was traipsing through the tulips?

Inquiring mind, and all that jazz . . . Ayaq

Oh Man, showing my Age...

Gotta go with the big Three From the Yardbirds in Clapton, Beck and Page, But for me there is no one like Jimmy Page.

One of my favorite guitarists.  Probably more for unconventual style of guitar playing.    On some of his music he plays rhythm and lead at the same time

What is interesting about the above is that everyone has chosen electric, which I love, but to me a truly great guitarist has to be acoustic too, no aids, and no just strumming chords, you don't see many using both? Now Jimmy Page truly excels at both as does Rob Lamothe, Knopler etc etc etc

Lol, Johnny Knox, aka @JohnnyNashville, who else but "him" plays with his teeth?

Great posts.

I'm a gonna go listen to Janis Joplin and get reminded why, oh why, we should all drive Mercedes Benz-z-es.

And her frickin' friends are all driving "Porsh-ees," and son-of-a-maraca, Sweet Janis has to make amends . . .

Some amends . . .

Excellent posts, Mr. Knox.  Ayaq
