I haven't looked through this entire thread so far but no one.....and I mean no one compares to this man.
Micheal Angelo Batio IS the guitar god. That V double guitar from PoD is of his design(I am told not 100%) and the only one on earth I am aware of that can play it.
Edit: Steve Vai and Tommy Emmanuel are honorable mentions. <3 Guitar soloists <3

My favorite guitarist has to be Jason Becker, and Marty Friedman too (but not because they played together, I just think Marty has a very unique style and phrasing)

Yeah it's pretty crazy two of the greatest ever played together in the same band. Can't think of many other guitar examples of that at all. Steve Vai played in Zappa's band but I wouldn't really call Zappa a guitar god although many would disagree.

you COULD say that Eddie VH, Steve Vai and Jason Becker were all in the same band, but at different times; ie as David Lee Roth's guitarist

Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck played together in the Yardbirds.

by far my most favorite guitarist of all time. sings/plays for the fall of troy. he won alternative press guitarist of the year for 2007, so he does have some recognition.
he's my favorite both in his execution, stage presence, and also the extremely entertaining music he writes. he's the king of non metal progressive rock.
