Glen Buxton & Michael Bruce (Alice Cooper)
Vivian Campbell (Def Leppard)
Joe Perry & Brad Whitford (Aerosmith)

Ace Frehley & Paul Stanley (Kiss)
Prince (he IS a good guitarist, but unfortunately, everything else about his songs SUCK)

The Beatles (again a bit older)
Led Zeppelin

Santana
KISS
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Motley Crue

these are just my opinions, and they're not in any particular order...my favorite guitarist of the ones listed is probably either Kirk Hammitt or James Hetfield from Metallica and my favorite band of those is Metallica (my dad got me hooked on Metallica...)
