Hendrix goes without saying. But I love Guns N Roses and therefore love Slash!

Dont forget Toad o' Line. Seem to remember before they were well known that Steve Vai and Joe Bonamassa played on Zappa albums in the 80s.

Satriani, van halen, moore, lifeson, marr.

But Hendrix is the ultimate.

Jimi Hendrix, Michael Schenker, Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen, Gary Moore and Brian May. Ah feel like I'm 15 again remembering that lot.

Robert Johnson, king of the delta blues. He influenced a lot of sixties guitarists. When Keith Richards first heard him he asked "who's the other guitarist?" There wasn't one, that's how good he was. Oh, and according to legend, he sold his soul to the devil, how cool can you get?

I'm glad somebody revived this zombie thread although I think the concept of there being one single 'Greatest Guitarist' is ridiculous. However it does give me a chance to post this video to an appreciative audience (possibly).
