I'm talking about creative and innovative guitar playing, not neceserally skilled guitar playing.

Hendrix of course to start, but.......
I've got to get Bob Dylan's name in as a good guitarist and musicain, but an unbelievable lyricist and did wonders with a nasal monotone voice with that catchy melody in his singing, Bob Dylan hugely influenced US culture and beyond.
Clapton has a chill vibe to his work unlike anyone else, he's the sage of our musical era who has known or seen em all.
Now for the alienlike skills of Stevie Ray Vaughn, how about what he did with Hendrix's Little Wing, now that is amazing....listen to that or the great solo in Texas Flood while driving through the hills of west Austin by the lake and you'll feel like Stevie is right there with you, his guitar work on Little Wing sounds like a message from beyond, i think Stevie was an texalien who learned to play the guitar, check out the statue of him on Town Lake in downtown Austin near Auditorium Shores.
David Gilmour's sick solo on Comfortably Numb and the song Time, their music takes me to outer space, i love it.
BB King...Ry Cooder...the freakin killer Duane Allman sound.......Robert Johnson..........
A few that I think are great, but maybe not your style are Jerry Garcia and Willy Nelson, for Willy...I suggest the album Teatro, which has a spanish percussion sound and a really good song without any lyrics, the last song on the album. For Jerry Garcia, just remember he was missing some of a finger and used the nub as an advantage, i give him a 9.5 overall, haha.
Kurt Cobain doesn't get ehough props when this topic arises, he was great, i can listen to the live unplugged album non-stop.
Okay, i have to go, thanks for asking.

Martin Birch.... He positioned the polish to each of the Maiden Albums til he retired in 1992, and mid 80s Maiden had sound high quality superior to a ton of modern-day albums. although maximum manufacturers extremely go genres a lot. And hate the guy all you want, yet few everybody is a extra valuable producer/mixer/engineer than Bob Rock. i'd hate his tampering with kinds, notwithstanding that's common that Bob Rock era Metallica had AMAZINGLY crisp production.

Either Jimi Hendrix or Eddie Van Halen. Both revolutionized the style of music they played.

I think time will show Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead to be one of the most innovative guitarists of all time. I can't really explain what it is he does that's different, it just is.
