Grant Green's tone is just pure. He never got the recognition he deserved.

Barney Kessel should be added to this list also. Green is excellent, nice mention.

Almost ALL of those are big names in the music industry. You just probably live in a desolate town.

We know the usual suspects, Beck, Clapton, Hendrix, Van Halen etc... But What are your thoughts on the phenomenal guitarists that don't SEEM to get the recognition, for example; Stephen Stills, Lindsey Buckingham & Richard Thompson... Who else would you consider an overlooked great guitarist?

Phenomenal guitarist was the question not nobodies

Andy Summers of the Police is thought of as just a rhythm player but the guy is also a jazz wiz and can solo unbelievably.

George Harrison is probably the most famous under rated player in history. The perfect team player who always played for the song and one of the best slide players I ever heard.
