Seeing some of the impossible stuff he did with his guitar I say
Frank Zappa.
His underling Steve Vai was pretty good too.
I also think Billy Corgan is a great player.
But Zappa was the most talented I believe

Thanks dude...I try. :thumbsup:
Gah! what as I thinking? I left off a few big ones.
Robert Fripp (King Crimson)
Neil Young
This guy knows whats up. I've never heard a Vai, Malmseet, Satch song that wasn't just another vehicle for their meedly-meedly licks and all out masturbation (SHREDDING THE GNAR! DIIIIIVE BOOOOMB weedlydeedlymedlemeedly). No offense to anyone who likes those bands, but
EDIT: I almost forgot someone who has influenced me a lot: GREG GINN
Edit 2, electric boogaloo: Damn it! I didn't mean to make a new post.
Because it is a sausage fest in here, and because I think she's about the best guitarist (as far as technical talent at least, though interpretively I like her a lot too) you should all check out Kaki King.
as for riffs and solos
Tony Iommi
Frank Zappa
as for technical prowess
Joe Satriani

Steve Vai has written some really good songs. Unlike his 80's stuff, his current playing has a lot more soul in it. He puts a lot of emotion into his stuff, unlike Malmsteen who is just showing off his technical prowess.
Mark Knopfler
