2.

AKA "Guitar Hero". A guitarist known for extraordinary skill, flash, style and influence. Usually this applies to rock'n'rollguitarists but not exclusively.

1. Chet Adkins is labeled as a country guitarist but he's delved into more genres than that. I saw him once on PBSwhere he performed TWO patriotic songs on his acoustic guitar - one song played on the strings near the sound hole, and the other tune on the neck. The 2 songs were being played at the same time! Chet looks like a guitar god to me.

2. When Dire Straits guitarist Mark Knopflerwon an MTVGuitarist of the Year award he was amazed and surprized, saying that he never considered himself to be a "guitar god". He later made an album with Chet Adkins.
