Who do you think are the best people to ever play the Guitar?

Some of mine

Jimi Hendrix (Should be on everybody's list)
Slash
Dave Navarro
Jimmy Page
Synyster Gates (Avenged Sevenfold) (Some Bad Ass Solo's)

Yours?

Yngwie Malmsteen
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Buckethead
Hendrix
Steve Vai
Eddie Van Halen
Jeff Beck
Eddie Hazel (of Funkadelic; listen to "Maggot Brain" and you'll see what I mean)
Jimmy Page (I don't believe that he was the greatest thing since sliced bread, but "Heartbreaker" is still one of the great accomplishments in guitar)
Randy Rhoads
Matt Bellamy (duh, look at who is making this post, after all.)

I don't really believe that Bellamy is on the same level as the guys mentioned above him, though. I just wanted to mention him.
