Who's The Best Rock Guitarist of All Time?

[megaladon6]

there is only one answer Jimi Hendrix. there are STILL songs that they haven't figured out how he played them. he did things that no one was able to mimic until they had pedals and electronics, if at all.
other guitar greats (in no particular order) joe satriani, his student kirk hammet, mustaine, rhoads, angus young, joe perry, BB king, DIMEBAG (RIP, enjoy the weed and jaeger in the next life man 😢 ), wes boreland, kerry ****in' king, willie adler, mark morton, chris de garmo, pepper keenan, michael amott, Iommi, wylde, jerry cantrell, slash, santana, stevie ray...

Eddie Van Halen, Steve Stevens (Billy Idol's Ax Man), and all the afore mentioned.

My favorite guitar solo has to be David Gilmour's work on "Shine On You Crazy Diamond (parts 1-5)."
