Mark Knopflers way up the list
Eddie Hazel
Nicholas Marks is the best I have ever heard. Seen him at Disney Springs several times.
Buckethead, Jeffrey Fisher (The Arbitrary) and Sarah Longfield are some names you don't often see mentioned.
They're two of my favorite players, as well.Originally Posted by okiebass
One I haven't seen mentioned, Jerry Reed, was no slouch.
Who controls John Gill?
He, as well as Buckethead are way up on my list as well.
If you know Buckethead...you know he's a good dude.Buckethead, Jeffrey Fisher (The Arbitrary) and Sarah Longfield are some names you don't often see mentioned.

A very cool video!
Most underrated guitarist? That's easy. Prince. Until seeing this, I had never even thought of him as a guitarist.
Gives me chills every time I watch it.
Jimmy Page...SB...
2006 Ranger 188 VX with 150 E TEC and I EAT BASS!!!
Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Derek Trucks, Glenn Campbell and some guy name Prince?
Boatless Bank Trash for now
Even though he's generally rated pretty decent, I always believe he's been underrated - Marty Friedman
John Petrucci or Bumblefoot. Both are really good. Not really sure where they fit on the all time greats or even make the list but eight now, they rock.
GNR have had some great guitar players.
Loved when he played with Megadeth.
Depends on your definition of 'best'. Being good at one style (country, rock, etc.),
might not even qualify to be 'in the running' for the purist.
Perhaps amidst the myriad of 'unknown' studio guitar players,
we may find this mythical 'best guitarist'.
I loved Jimi Hendrix and Prince played an astonishing number of musical instruments well.
(But, no, Clapton never said - "ask Prince".)
Do not take your half in the middle ....
Joe Bonamassa in the current era
Exactly. Check out Tim Pierce on Youtube. Amazing player. He can play anything. Session guitarist for many. You've probably heard him and didn't know it.
Tom
Randy Rhoads, best ever, just didn't stay around long enough, wish he would have, and yes Roy Clark , Jason Hook is pretty good as well
David Gilmour has got to be on the list.

Strigal Simpson and Derrick trucks
