He plays everything but usually bass with the Beatles. Is that not considered guitar?

Well.....as a guitarist......gotta say no.

Love Paul. Have a lot of Wings and later plus a huge Beatles collection. Always a favorite, like Geff Lynn.

I've got his VHS tape around somewhere, forget if it was hot licks or some other production. Incredible!

Many honorable mentions....BUT, Hendrix bar none. Listen to the tapes, the guy was otherworldly.

I grew up in the sixties and seventies...have many guitar heroes; from Clapton, Hendrix, Page, Townshend, the list goes on (too many too list).

Check out Joe Bonamassa and Tommy Emmanuel on YouTube for some incredible guitarists.

I've seen both in concert and they are amazing...SRV will always be on my top list.
