Mikael Akerfeldtmile: happy to see Mike on here...I am an Opeth fanatic of sorts as well as Steven Wilson ! Akerfeldt and Wilson are soulmates and collaborate often.

Marty Friedman
Richard Thompson (the folk player)
Ani DiFranco
Steve Vai
David Gilmour
Richie Blackmore
Jesper Stromblad
Tony Iommi


EDIT: I guess these are just my favorite. Some I'd put in "greatest of all time," but others not so much. Ani DiFranco is beast finger picker, but I don't think she's one of "the greats." Tony Iommi, too, is awesome and his playing strikes a chord with me, but I appreciate him most for his creativity and not his playing ability, which is good. All the other guys in my list, though, are great players and writers, and that's why I'd put them on a pedestal.
