Still a whole bunch of really great guitarists haven't been mentioned, which is probably understandable as some would even be considered obvious.

Anyway, Mattias IA Eklundh, no idea how famous he is and I'm not exactly a fan either but I can't deny that some of the stuff I heard was very impressive. It was, for the lack of better terms, quirky and far-reaching, at the very least. If you're into somewhat bizarre guitar it's probably worth a try.

The guy is definitely quirky. I say a video of his call There's no money in jazz http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YslqqAl4v8 and it reminded me of what Pat said awhile ago. http://youtu.be/vr78ISrTElE?t=7m47s. A lot of the guitarist mentioned in this thread, I think have that mentality of the music first.

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit - The Tick
