David Gilmour
Jimmy Page

Rolando Alphonso

Every member of Modest Mouse
Every member of Arctic Monkeys
All the guys from Minus the Bear and Explosions in the Sky
John Froosh (Fruciante)

Do love me some Hendrix. Can't say I like Malmsteen to much. I would have to go with Petrucci or Satriani instead, but each to his own.

Some more of mine:

Every member of Brand New
Roger Waters
the many members of Bloc Party (really been loving their music lately)
Tom Morello (Rage kicks ***!)

I guess Malmsteen's rendition of the Legend of Zelda theme is what really made him one of my favorites.

I agree with you there, Tom Morello is awesome.

Hmm... I haven't heard that one. I will have to check that out. Even though I don't like Malmsteen, I do respect him as a guitarist. That being said, he could create a pretty sweet version of the Zelda theme.
