Hank Marvin.British guitar greats like Clapton,Beck,Page, May,Gilmour,Knopfler,Townshend,to name a few have all admitted HM and The Shads were a big influence on them.It was Hank who made me pick up the guitar seven years ago with his echoey strat(and Burns) sound.
"When I was a kid,all I wanted was a red electric guitar.It had to be red,because of Hank and his magical sound." Mark Knopfler on Hank Marvin.

I think the best HM guitar payer is Marty Friedman, Megadeth is nothing without this guy
n the best "creater" is Vai n Van Halen
the best in "melody" n little bit "strange" style is Paul Gilbert (n Richie Sambora too? perhaps)
n lastly best in HM-Progressive is Criss Oliva (i dont kno ecxactly the name but this guy's from Savatage)

Watch the Garden concert of Springsteen that just came out on DVD. In particular, see "Youngstown" and there should be no doubt that Nils Lofgren is totally possessed! Who wouldn't make a deal with the devil to play like that?!
Other's include:
Hendrix (without a doubt, the best there was!)
Stevie Ray (who wasn't allowed the opportunity to show us how he would have progressed by now)
Little Steve VanZant (who is a good actor, but a REAL good guitarist!)

Wow! this string was so long I just skipped through to the last page. Did anyone mention Ritchie Blackmore yet? He was the one that got me playing guitar and I still enjoy listening to Deep Purple.
Other favourites are Satch, Vai, Pat Metheny and Alvin Lee. Overall I think Dave Gilmour touches me the most though. His tone and phrasing just hit the spot for me.
