As a guitarist myself, I have hundreds of guitarists that I respect and admire. I guess that what is best is to just list stream of consciousness in no particular order the guys that have actually influenced my playing to a major degree. I'm sure I'll forget a few, but here goes:
John McLaughlin, Uli Jon Roth, Michael Schenker, Tony Iommi, Duane Allman, Dickey Betts, Hetfield & Hammett, Carlos Santana, Randy Rhoads, Murray & Smith, DIMEBAG, Brian Robertson, Scott Gorham, Gary Moore, Rory Gallagher, Roy Buchanan, Zakk Wylde, Buddy Guy, David Gilmore, Jimi Hendrix, Warren Haynes, Clapton, Beck, Page, Jimmy McCulloch, McCartney, George Harrison, Ritchie Blackmoor, Richard Thompson, Felix Kos, & Frank Zappa. Oh yeah, even though he's technically a bassist, I've learned just about everything Cliff Burton ever did!

I'm going to have to throw Yngwie Malmsteen in. Yea, sure, he's got an Ego bigger than my room, but he is an excellent guitarist after all!up
Randy Rhoads was also an excellent guitarist. Quite liked his solo-ing.In musical terms, his departure was untimely.
When talking about rhythm guitarists, though, the award would have to go to Jon Schaffer. The sheer precision of his rhythm guitars is genius.

Kurt Hammett?Originally Posted by Frigga'sSpindle
I don't think dear Kirk would approve of your "Kurteously" renaming him at will.
