    Could easily pick a different five but Hendrix has been up top since I heard the Jimi Hendrix Concerts back in 1982 aged 9.

    If McCartney doesn't count since guitar wasn't his main instrument then replace him with George Harrison.

    Roy Clark is awesome, underrated and a great flamenco player too. So good. Not just a smilin' Hee Haw dude at all. Chops galore like lots of the country hot pickers, but, he had a unique to himself way too, great player.
