Since this thread seems to be slowing down I got 2 more greats that fly under the radar. If you have seen Clapton live you have seen Albert Lee as he has been his rhythm guy for a few tours. A Brit playing country. This guy can flat out pick with the best of them . Really like his style and sound. I remember when Stevie Gaines of L. Skynard got great recognition for his style of play . Albert could play circles around him. Not many play smoother than he. Give him a listen.
The other is Arlen Roth another fantastic player. Can't beat that Fender sound.

that's definitely alright for sure. I also don't believe you can put a best on most things in music as all this stuff is totally personal preference. All these guys are fantastic. They make it all look so easy, never getting stuck or at a lose for an idea.

Have not heard this gentlemans name yet.
Steve Morse of the Dixie Dregs, Dregs,His own band and the lead for Deep Purple the last several years. Seen him up close and personal a few times and always left blown away. He plays for Deep Purple for the $$$ i am sure but this video will show his true genius. His hands are gigantic.
