how about John Petrucci from Dream Theater?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkF4JD2rO3Q

get to 6:09 in the video and tell me that he isnt at least one of the best.
Dream Theater is one of the best bands i have ever heard, and their genre of music isnt even one that i really like.

Thanks for a great thread. This is reminding me of some names I'd forgotten.
Seeing Paco De Lucia's name reminded me of Al DiMeola. Anyone into acoustic should get their hands on "Friday Night in San Francisco" Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin, & Paco DeLucia -Unreal acoustic live album

Man that is a tough question. Roy Buchanen has always been my favorite. He is an obscure, eccentric type of a guy who ended up hanging himself in a jail cell but boy could he play. Youtube has a lot of videos of his. Check out "Hey Joe" if you go there.   Duane Allman on slide guitar, Mark Knopfler [dire straits] for tone, Eddie Van Halen for pioneering a totally new way of playing a guitar.

Stevie Ray Vaughn

There's a pretty good (relatively unknown) guitarist named Albert Cummings who sounds a lot like SRV -you can hear some of his stuff for free at http://www.albertcummings.com/.

For me it's David Gilmour all the way. Being good is not all about being fast.......
