John Mayer is probably the most well known. The guy is a blues virtuoso and belongs in the same conversation as Clapton, Joe Walsh. The fact that he can also make top 40 music is a testament to his breadth as a musician.
Another really talented guitarist is Orianthi. She had some top 40 hits about 5 years ago, but has fallen off the map. She was going to be the guitarist for Michael Jackson's tour before he died.
Jake Cinninger of Umphrey's McGee is very talented. They're my favorite band at the moment, and they've got one of the best lighting guys in the industry for their live shows.

i agree...and you are talking some pretty good talent in clapton and big joe...i love joe walsh...my wife and i don't go to many big arena concerts anymore...we usually support the local musicians in our area which are pretty good..however, i saw that joe walsh is touring with bad company..don't know if joe is replacing mick ralphs with bad company or if joe is the opening act or vise versa...guess i'll follow the tour on google to see whats up...but my wife likes walsh also and likes bad company....

last yr alice cooper opened for motley crue which announced this was their last tour...hard to believe alice would open for anyone, but from what i understand, and i am not sure of this but alice highly promoted motley crue from the get go. he really liked them...so i can see the reason he opened...crue's last tour ever, he promoted them etc etc...makes sense...i pulled up a video of alice on that tour and he had a female guitarist in the band..guess that was who you guys are talking about...didn't know her name until now if that was her....i'll tell you what, she was incredible...that is all i can say...

Mayer is definitely on my short list.

Tim reynolds plays a weird style but id be hard pressed to say he wasn't pretty great on an acoustic -
Speaking of great acoustic players I really love this guy

I understand. I kind of agree with you but I don't think anybody can think of any modern guitar players that ring a bell.
Guitar virtuosos tend to fly under the radar in popular music.
I'll give it a little while, and if you still want I will take it down. You know what happens when the gipper gets involved.

First love that Roy Clark got a mention among the old school names...
Newbies? Seem to know more than I own...
In no particular order...
- Found Gary Clark, Jr. when I followed the HBO series Sonic Highways... can shred it, but often steps back...
- Caught Tedeschi Trucks Band on ACL a while ago... Derek Trucks can flat play.
- Eric Gales... a true bassakwards threat.... a rightie that plays a rightie strung guitar leftie...
chicago transit authority.....kind of figured you would know....again, thanks for the video....
My first live concert... Cleveland Public Auditorium... summer of '71. Blues Image opened for Chicago...

Lawsuit from Chicago Transit Authority?
Yup.... the real CTA apparently wasn't thrilled by the free publicity...
Either that or the city did not care for the band's sampling of the crowd chant from the '68 convention...

Has anybody mentioned Trey Anastasio?
Warren Haynes??.

Greatest guitarist humm...
What genre? I mean there's so much it's so vast to make a choice. I guess it's favorite guitarist. But if I were to say best guitarist I would have to factor in some things..
Like Malmsteen a great guitar player but no radio play won't get my vote. I mean you can be really good to only a group of peeps that appreciate it.
Like Kerry King with great rhythm but his soloing sucks but put out good tunes.
Like Motley CrΓΌe' s Mick Mars has all the attributes but again with the soloing just not there.
It's just too much but if I had to pick one...
Joe Satriani.
He's a musician with knowledge and teaches. His albums are awesome to me. Whenever I did any home recording I would have an idea and build on it then explain where someone like Satch can have an idea and build on it through thought out planning before even touching the guitar.
