As far as ROCK, Eric Clapton
Jimi Hendrix
Eddie Van Halen
These are the obvious top 3.
It gets harder after this. Certainly not Slash or Angus Young! I would say maybe Carlos Santana (He has a unique style. You immediately know its him soloing.)
My 5th choice is a tie between Jeff Beck and Duane Allman. Maybe Allman.
JAZZ - Django Reinhart
Wes Montgomery
John McLaughlin
Larry Carlton
George Benson
BLUES - BB King
Eric Clapton (again)
Mike Bloomfield
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Roy Buchanon
COUNTRY - Albert Lee
Chet Atkins
(the guy who used to play on early Emmylou Harris first few CDs I don't remember his name)
The next 2 is anyones guess. Country isn't my specialty.

From my experience and Billboard magazine, the top five were/are B.B. King, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Chet Atkins, Eddie Van Halen. I also like Vince Gill, Ricky Scaggs and Steve Wariner.

Angus Young- AC/DC
Synyster Gates- Avenged Sevenfold
Zacky Vengeance- Avenged Sevenfold
Claudio Sanchez- Coheed & Cambria
Sonny Moore- From First To Last (he's actually not the guitarist, he used to be. he's awesome!)
my guitarists are in no paticular order because they are really good and i can't choose who would come first and last and in the middle, so that's it.

Charlie Christian - the Hendrix of his time
Danny Gatton - played multiple genres fantastic
