John McLaughlin
Lowell George
Luther Allison
Al Dimeola
Steve Morse
Frank Zappa
Leslie West
Rory Gallagher

Just off the top of my head.
If I gave it any thought, I'd prabably come up with at least 10 more worthy contenders who kick the stuffing out of half the guitarists mentioned.

You beat me to it but c'mon, Leslie West??? (He used to be a local here 30 years ago).
Kudos for remembering Rory!

Absolutely! Rory was brilliant. I treasure my old Taste LPs and everything else he did.

...surprised Jesse Cook didn't make this list.
He should be top 20, imo.
