Who is your favorite guitarist??

[jgcable]

I've been through phases over the last 30 or so years of playing guitar. Malmsteen,Roth, Lynch, Rhoads, Macalpine, Frehley, I love them all and I have used their styles to create my own metal lead style but I have come to a realization that they are just passing fads for me.
My all time favorite guitar player is without a doubt...
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN
I NEVER get tired of listening to him play. I have heard every lick a million times.
I really should have been a Texas blues player. Actually, I think that one day I will be. I seem to play Texas blues style better than any other style and always have yet I always found myself entrenched in the metal scene.
Oh yea...I sometimes forget that he wrote and sang all the songs too!
Who is your all time favorite guitarist? Just list 1.

Jon Nodtveidt from Dissection. Although I don't agree with his lifestyle, the guy is an amazing guitarist and songwriter. He's not a shredder, but his playing never ceases to impress me, and his tone is far superior to most of his peers.

I have favorites in different styles, but if your talking blues/rock stuff I'd have to go with Gilmour over SRV. As far as metal, Lynch will always rule in my books.

Jeff Beck would be my alltime favourite guitarist but Steve Vai is my biggest inspiration in music.
