Best guitar player Live or dead. I say John Pettruci

[BelenosThePagan]

I don't Know who the "best" is or even how you would measure that, but here's my personal fav.
Muhammed Suiçmez

yes its death metal, not alot of vocals on this vid so give it a try sissies

Chuck Schuldiner of death was a much better musician and songwriter, but not at guitar porn status like Muhammed

I look at Muhammed as a less memorable Jason Becker who does annoying growls on top of things. Jeff Loomis is where it's at for modern metal shredders. He's pretty much the second coming of Becker, same vibrato and everything.

ya Loomis is a badass, but you have to remember that if your a fan of the genre then they're not "annoying growls" and the ability to do vocals while playing the way he does is actually quite impressive.

No fans of....

Robert Fripp? (King Crimson)
D Boon (Minutemen)
Daniel Ash (Bauhouse/Tones on Tails/Love and Rockets)
East Bay Ray (Dead Kennedys)
Pete Seeger (oops, that's a banjo!)
Dave Broke (Hawkwind)
Leadbelly!
Dave Bidini, (Rheostatics)
Nancy Wilson (Heart)

or a host of other greats

Probably the worlds best guitar player is in some mountain/seaside/jungle village/town/slum/city in some poor country where he/she will never be heard of.

Those are all good guitarists. Unfortunately, they would have to play drop C, nu-metal, homo-erotic shit metal to be appreciated on these forums.
