This is a very broad question to ask considering all the different Music Genres
and styles. In my opinion one of the best I have heard in the last few years is
Derek Trucks . Derek Plays with his own Band which plays along the line of
jam band which also includes Blues Jazz and African and middle eastern influences. He also plays with the legendary Allman Brothers band which is how i saw introduced to him.
he is an amazing slide player but im sure you can find other great players in other genres
KC
yes he is.
Bonnie Raitt
If you man the best guitarist ever, ever, ever, on bass, it is definitely Mikey Way. The best guitarist ever, ever, ever, that plays electric, is definitely Frank Iero.
Jimi Hendrix Rory Gallagher
I am the worst guitarist in the world. I don't know how to play.
I believe that Orianthi is the best women guitarist she even played for M.J before "According To You" came out, which is her # 1 hit. Also I believe that Slash from the FAMOUS band "Guns And Roses" is the best male guitarist in the world. Some people might disagree and say that the Chuck Berry is the best male guitarist. (I think it is Slash, not to be mean but i do sorry to the people out there that think that is is Chuck Berry.)
according to ultimate guitar tabs its jeff loomis. but in my opinion its kirk hammett
While every rock fan has his or her own opinion on who is the best in the world, it's safe to say that Eric Clapton is widely admired and respected as a guitarist; and critics (as well as fans) have often praised his skillful guitar-playing. Thus, he is certainly one of rock's best guitarists, and his fans would say he is the best.
he is the best guitarist of myanmar. Also he love Jesus
Of course he is the best guitarist.
Joe Satriani.
