Your assessment of Nancy Wilson is right on the money.When Heart first came on the scene most guitar gods were men,Nancy was one of the first guitar goddesses and still reigns supreme.She's also the foxiest 60 year old guitarist to ever hit the stage.

I believe there is no such thing as best any guitarist male or female. It is an impossible thing to judge. Really how would you go about it, literally?

Its better to ask who you like the best?

Currently I like this:

Gwen Otep, all the guitarists from Kittie are awesome, I live in Rhode Island, and saw a band with a female guitarist play at one of Warwick's{Providence} dive bars, and she was awesome. I just can't remember her name. They had a bunch of female Metal guitarists there that night and I was blown away by a few of them. I guess it really doesn't matter if you have long fingers, because one of the ladies had hands like a child, and she could jam. On top of that she was gorgeous and had a great stage show. All the women would do that OLD Craptallica thing where they all jammed in sync. :roll: You know, they all stood next to each other and jammed in unison, bending over, back up, bending over, back up etc. Lol, yeah it was outdated and amusing, but that's not all they did that was impressive, just all I can think of right now because I was drinking heavily. They just had an awesome stage show and could really play. Really cool. Kittie and Otep happen to be two of my favorite bands to be honest. I love chicks that can jam. It's a turn on. :D

Yeah, I know, run on sentences and no paragraph structure, so here's another paragraph for ya. :D

I tend to agree. I can't tell you who the best is, but I can tell you my favorites (which is probably more what the OP was after anyway).

I really dig Bonnie Raitt (of course) and Susan Tedeschi (hope I spelled her name right). I think Carolyn Wonderland is pretty awesome too, and she's also from Houston! And to go way old school, there's Elizabeth Cotten. If you don't know who she is, and you like blues, give her a listen.

EDIT: Rory Block! Forgot to mention Rory Block.

Lovely choice Lucb. Chantel McGregor is a very talented guitarist/singer. The popular music world might not acknowledge her talent. As a zaftig woman acceptance from the mainstream is an uphill effort.

The BEST Female guitar player is subject to everyone's opinion. I have no opinion on who is best. I do however have an opinion on who you should check out.

Carol Kaye, better known for her Bass playing is quite an accomplished guitar player.

Emily Remler, although she is no longer with us, she was an accomplished Jazz Guitar Player.

And Kudos to all of those that have been named so far!!

I'm with y'all on Bonnie Raitt. Plus John Lee Hooker adored her playing and that's a pretty strong endorsement as well.
