I’d say Chuck Berry is very underrated. But then, every butthead these days thinks real music only began late ‘60s. Kind of funny, the same time everything went to hell, yet we’re supposed to believe music is great since then and nothing before was any good, because it doesn’t have an “edge”.

So far, no one has mentioned Bob Dunn, the great steel guitarist. My choice for the best rock guitarist would be Johnny "Guitar" Watson.

Fitz and the Tantrums is one rock band that bravely decided to go without gittars and came out pretty well for it.

One musician I follow is a classically trained pianist who also sings and plays a 4 string guitar, which is called tenor guitar, somewhat difficult to find on the market, and which he tunes like a mandolin. He plays it like a ringing a bell, and seeing him on Youtube, I wonder how he plays the bass string which is prominent in the sound, with his left hand?

I can only judge the ones I’ve heard live. The top 5 are Clapton(with Muddy Waters), Zappa, Townshend, Page, and EVH. I saw Malmsteen open for AC/DC in 1985, and was bored. Angus Young was much more interesting.Never saw Duane Allman, Hendrix, or SRV.

Well...I think Slash does the better Keith Richard impersonation.

Thank you for playing.

In my opinion, the best rock guitarist was George Cummings. He once played for Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show.

His performances were hypnotizing, electrifying and also a little scary. Especially when he strode to the mic to sing "Penicillin Penny".

We will never see the likes of a George Cummings ever again.
