I like Santana too, steve vai is awesome too, even "pepino de agostino" is too damn great, but no one like Silver hands.

My uncle, Freddie. That guy can jam! And his wife makes awesome baked treats :-)
Nobody of you mentioned Carlos Santana. I think he has a unique magic touch...

Santana is a very strong contender for the best ever.
I agree Santana is fucking amazing.

Best guitarist is far too broad ...probably is Jimmy Page.
Van Halen.
As a guitarist myself (although I've sold my electric and haven't touched my Nylon in years 
), I'd say both Slash and Jimi when it comes to complexity. For simple catchy tunes, with simple chords, I've found no one as powerful as Kurt Cobain. The guy was no guitar genius by any stretch but somehow finding powerful combinations was natural for him.

Mine? Slash.

Although My heart says Albert King, cause he played a right strung guitar
left handed and inspired most of the guitarist that are on this list, I'll say:
Django Reinhardt
I don't even care for jazz but this guy kicked some major ass!!!
He only had 2 working fingers on his fret hand!!!

Ditto. Certainly not the best technically or in terms of theoretical knowledge or implementation...but that feel!
