Default Best guitar player ever

This guy is absolutely awesome! He has a very unique style of playing guitar and he is incredible at it. I'm putting up the link to one of his videos but there are others and you should definitely see them!

I would have to go with Steve Vai. I have seen some of Andy McKee's work, he reminds me of Keller Williams a lot with the way he does a lot of slapping or tapping on the guitar to make notes between playing. This put together with sweeping picking motions just reminds me of Keller.

I'm not sure I'd call him the best guitar player ever but he certainly does have a unique style and is very talented at it. Thanks for sharing the clip.

Trey Anistasio, David Gilmore and can we forget Clapton! I think not, they don't call him "Slow Hand" for nothing you know!

if we are talking rock then its way open as far as Im concerned and surely it isnt just about speed of fingers but feel..so my choice for a true guitarist with feel is David Gilmore. Another great guitarist (who was underestimated in my opinion) not only had a great feel but also had a unique sound the late lamented George Harrison.
