Juan Cox
No. He's actually been steadily improving his craft for almost 50 years now, unlike Eric Crapton, who still plays the same tired blues licks he played with Cream. Jeff's ability to coax any emotion or sound he wants out of a single note is completely unparalleled; his phrasing these days is nothing but extraterrestrial. His tremolo technique in particular is fucking mindboggling.
Lots of dudes can play technically difficult shit at a high BPM. Very few guitarists have a sound that is instantly recognizable after a few notes, though, and the number of guitarists that fit this definition who have also been steadily improving their craft for over 50 years is... one: Jeff Fucking Beck
Andrew Brown

>Eric Crapton
>tired blues licks
I met Eric Clapton once in the early 80's. I tried to sell him some child safety windows and he just ignored me and played a few tired blues licks on his Strat.
Michael Lopez
Yes.

>electric guitar
burgers are hilarious!
John Reyes
Electric guitar is a far more versatile instrument. Why wouldn't the best guitarist in the world utilize its versatility?
Hunter Scott
I dunno about "best" in terms of technical ability, but my favorite is David Gilmour. His playing is emotive and moving and always enhances the song and never feels out of place or self indulgent. Tony Iommi is really good too, but he's more of a riff monster.
Jaxson Williams
Sorry but Acoustic Electric has it beat.
Blake Thomas
thank you for this list
Xavier Morgan
No. Aside from the fact acoustics almost never have tremolos, the sustain and easy to bend strings of an electric make it more versatile.
Electric is more expressive/versatile. It just is. Deal with it.
I get what you're trying to say. Acoustic is arguably more difficult to play. Electric is more versatile, though, and I would assume the world's greatest guitarist would, at some point, wish to use its versatility.

>never feels self indulgent
nigga....
Justin Cook
If Gilmour is self-indulgent then all guitar solos are.
Jonathan Lee
And if all guitar solos are self-indulgent, then all instrumental solos are self-indulgent.
Luis Allen
All music is self indulgent
Jayden Jackson
