Guitar gods

[Jaws]

On my homepage today there's an item on guitar gods where they have pics of some of the greatest.

Who would you consider to be the greatest guitarist of all time?

Jimmie Hendrix, Robin Trower, Jimmy Page, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and his bothers are decent, All of the King Brothers, Eric Clapton, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker. My list is so long. Love the blues, Classic Rock, Some metal.

What in the world. They do not have Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott on there. What a disgrace. The greatest of anything is always up for debate, but in my opinion, Dimebag is surely up towards the top.

WTF? I didn't even know she played guitar...anyways, this is way too broad of a subject, you would have to break it down into subgroups (though it would still be too broad, lol. Technically, the greatest guitarist ever is Yngwie Malmsteen, IMO. Try listening to one of his cds and you will be bored to death! Rustey Cooley is' amazing, too ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aVlL...arch=%20Cooley ). Besides that I guess I'm next on the list...

[Den21-Bal19]

I see my personal favourite is on there, Queen's Brian May........the guy just has so much musical ability it's unreal, not only as a guitarist, but as a writer, vocalist, and general musician...........if it's got either strings or keys, he can play it............and he's got such a distinctive sound as well..............I went to see Queen & Paul Rodger's play last year, and they perform a few Free & Bad Company tracks, even though the riffs for 'All Right Now' are not Queen, you can hear May's sound.

A couple that I didn't see listed that, IMO, are worth a mention are Extreme's Nuno Bettencort and a guy called Jonas Isacsson who toured with Swedish duo Roxette in the 90's. Don't let Roxette's Europop sound fool you, live they were a proper rock act

pop quiz.

There is a guitarist who Jimmy Hendrix once called the best he had ever heard.

This guy is not on any of your lists, nor the Guitar gods on the original post. He is quite well known.

I am wondering if any of you can guess.

Hint: He toured with Hendrix.

In the intrests of brevity I will not say no to every post. When somebody gets it I will tell you. I may post another hint. If this seems to get to drawn out I will just tell you guys.

Damn, I know this but can't think of it! Lemmy from Motorhead was a roadie for Hendrix for a time and he mentioned the guy in an interview once but it escapes me now.
