Best guitar tone you've ever heard?

We talk a lot about our favorite bass tones,and artists but whats the best guitar tone you've ever heard?

For me it's definitely Stevie Ray Vaughan's Little Wing tone,and his over all tone period.

I could probably listen to him all day.

Probably anything played by Justin Hayward of the Moody Blues, with SRV close behind - different kind of sound, though. John Fogerty would be in there as well.

That blue Sadowsky strat that Walter Becker plays put out the best clean guitar tone I ever heard. The thing gave me chicken skin.
I don't pay much attention to guitar tone as long as it's not hurting me but, that thing was something special.
