I love to listen to Randy Rhoads, Andres Segovia, the two guys from the Black Dahlia murder, Hendrix, and Paul Gilbert.

|  | Louisiana Superdome. S 127. R 22. S 12-13. Moderator | | Join Date: Feb 2002 Location: Mobile, Al | | | I could list several that I would say are favorites, but I like them more for their song-writing, as they're little more than strictly rhythm players.
As for players I'd list based on their guitar work, that's a fairly short list:
Kaki King
Dan Auerbach - the black keys
Roy Buchanan
Other songwriters who are more lead-type players:
R.L. Burnside
Junior Kimbrough
"Big Bill" Broonzy
