I must say I cannot go past The Edge - Dave Evans. Other guitarists have greater mobility, and are freer with their instruments - that goes without question. - but Evans has a niche, a dedication to sounds and melodic/rhythmic parts that gives him an unmistakable "voice" and define a song, an album. He is a true craftsman and sonic sculptor.
Django Reinhardt is another - albiet on another spectum entirely - taking a disability and surpassing lesser mortals. His and violinist Stephane Grappellis melodic intertwinings are simple breathtaking.
