[Blackhawk]

My Top 10 guitar players at the moment:

Jimi Hendrix
Frank Zappa
Steve Vai
Ritchie Blackmore
Wes Montgomery
Buddy Guy
Jeff Beck
Paco de Lucia
Albert Collins
Dickie Betts

[Lazarus]

Good list of guys there!

I don't think I can narrow my choices down to ten. So many great guitarists, so many different styles. But I would definitely put Joe Pass, Kenny Burrell, Bireli Lagrene, Al DiMeola, Peter Green somewhere in the top

And I'm still discovering more. Just two days ago I came across Johnny Antonopoulos - better known as Johnny A. Very interesting fellow.... I'm looking more into him... Here's a sample with an interpretation of a  Jimi Hendrix song.

Sounds interesting. I'll have to check out some of his music.

Speaking of Greek guitarists, my favorite one is Giannis Spathas, who formed the group Socrates Drank the Conium. These days at age 67 he is performing in Athens clubs with Blue Airways.

I remember seeing him in Chicago in 1994 as a guitarist in the Mikis Theodorakis orchestra at Auditorium Theater.
