I love joe satriani though he's also boring as hell. As a bass guitarist I gotta big it up to the most amazing bassist ever Victor Wooten.

Yay

Re: Best Guitarist ever?
Nice one, Mr C, I'd forgotten all about him!

Here's the guy who first introduced the electric guitar to blues (and therefore, ultimately rock music) - T-Bone Walker. Every single electric guitarist who has come along since from Hank Marvin to Clapton to the latest heavy metal kid on the block owes a debt to him. See, you don't have to play loud to be good!

Re: Best Guitarist ever?
I've seen many of the guitarists mentioned on this thread over the years, but the best must surely be the late Stevie Ray Vaughn. When I saw him in Manchester in the 80s he was immense. I know he modelled himself on Hendrix, but he did so much with a guitar that it could make you weep.
