1.

Richie Kotzen

Jacose Jenny
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Probably the most underrated guitar player on the planet. He always happens to be an awesome singer and accomplished song writer.
2.

Steve Morse

Highland Wedding
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Steve's powerful and melodic guitar style is something to behold and its no wonder he has been chosen for bands such as Dixie Dreggs, Deep Purple and Kansas.
3.

John Frusciante

Untitled 11
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Although technically not as gifted as many virtuoso players he has created some undeniably classic guitar moments with the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and his eye for a catchy melody is rare indeed.
4.

Joe Satriani

Hands In The Air
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Probably one of the most successful virtuoso artists around but amazingly hasn't broken into the mainstream. His melodic and highly technical instrumentals are something else.
5.

Prince

Head
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Rarely recognised as a guitarist, Prince's guitar playing on Purple Rain is oustanding

LearnTheGuitarNow said: I'm probably just venting here but I think all the guitarists on this list (apart from John Frusciante & Prince) deserve far more success. Of course if anyone has a better suggestion I'd love to hear it. Just leave a comment below. (8/20/2008)
