There are thousands of these world class guitarists out there. I think it boils down to the exposure they get and the style you prefer. John Nitzinger in Fort Worth is an example. I saw Mike Morgan at the Wortham blues festival last Saturday and he was great. Eric Johnson is another. How about Carlos Santana?

I agree. As far as 'regionally famous' guys go, the late-great Danny Gatton from Maryland was incredible, and a bit more widely known, there's Fairfax, Virginia's Roy Buchanan.

Exactly. I’ve heard blues musicians in local bars that were amazing, but never cut a record or played to a stadium.
