you're disrespecting hendrix by holding him up to such a degree. Dude was one of the greatest, but not number 1
>Andres Segovia
>Wes Montgomery
I'd add Andy Partridge, Nick Drake and Mark Kozelek
Bill Frisell, Jim Hall, Pat Metheny, Marc Ribot, Madonna, Lil Wayne,
Oh sorry Wes and Andres are good picks, meant to put a reaction gif of Snoop Dogg
>no holdsworth
RIP
>has Paco De Lucia and John McLaughlin
...but no Al DiMeola
John Williams is and Barrios was, better than Segovia.
Good, solid list with a couple exceptions.
fuck I am so tired of this lame list...where Maybell carter is a better guitar player than Stevie Ray Vaughan or Steve Vai....
KYS.
He wasn't even that great
he just got fellated by rolling stone writers a lot
his first album is great, the next three are iffy

OP has a decent list but it's too full of fusion/blues wankery
Add:
>D. Boon

>Billy Corgan
If you can say that after listening to Machine Gun you're a dumbass
1. Slash

3. Dragonforce - Through the Fire and the Flames
4. John Mayer

>Django Reinhardt

Good picks. While not on a solely technical level, I might put Jobim on this list because of how much he was an innovator for jazz guitar as it started to split genres
