Honourable mention to James Dean Bradfield (Manics) too.

Definitely! He'd get my vote for most 'Under-rated' Guitarist of all time. Always sounded better when playing aggresively. The newer stuff from the Manics doesn't bring out the edge in him.

Not darn sarf
Adrian Smith. Just love his style.

Technically I would go for Mark Knopfler.

Think there are lots of good guitarists out there. Have you noticed that most of the ones mentioned are older more established players?

Most newer guitarists play indie and nu-metal, so there isn't much of an oppurtunity for them to show off (if they have any talent at all). The guys out of Dragonforce are technically very good though (musically a bit *too* fast and samey though).

Joe Satriani

Followed closely by...
Steve Vai
Eric Johnson
John Petrucci (Dream Theater)
The Edge (U2)
David Gilmour (Pink Floyd)
John Williams (classical guitarist)

The thing I love about all these guys (and people like Page, Brian May, Hendrix and Clapton) is that you can tell it's them playing just by their tone.
