    Plenty mentioned Mark. ;)

    I also liked the nod for Roy Clark. he was a true master picker FOR SURE. B)
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    like most here.

    David Gilmore
    Peter Townshend
    lindsey buckingham
    SRV
    and I think the one who I have heard the most Keith Richards

    but I give a shout out to Mike McCready of Pearl Jam.
    here a Video of him doing the intro to "Ywllow Ledbetter" and then he finishes it while the rest of the band leaves the stage and just sits down an watches him finshes it..

    Funny during the studio version of the song and right before the guitar solo Eddy says: Make me cry!

    you see gals in thecrying and blowing kissing to him on stage!

    Favorite...Stevie Ray Vaughan. Followed closely by Duane Allman. Then in no particular order...Jimi Hendrix, B.B. King, Jimmy Page and Eddie Van Halen. And throw in Joe Walsh...just because.

    Greatest...that's something else. Probably Hendrix or Clapton.

    No Steve Morse fans? Maybe not as mainstream but one of the true guitar gods.

    I literally sat next to Steve Morse at an Eric Johnson concert back in 1991, if that gives you some perspective.

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....
