Eh, there's so many, I'll just list a few off of the top of my head. Also, if people just post lists instead of explaining their choices this thread will be locked.
Buckethead Tom Morello Santana John Frusciante Mark Knopfler Paul Gilbert Jack White
Clapton is my personal favourite, mainly because I like his style of music. Hendrix, probably is the greatest player ever though, from an objective point. He created sounds people are striving to replicate to this day, way back in the 60s. That's a pretty epic legacy.
He's way overrated and there are far better guitarists.
I disagree. Within his genre, Slash probably is one of the best guitarists of all time. It's just that he has a very narrow field. Really great guitarists can play different styles, which is why I left him out, but that doesn't mean he's really overrated..

It really dissapoints me to see, that not one of the three best awesomely guitarplayers of all time that I like, haven't been mentioned at all...
My top three consists of:
# 1Edward Van Halen, bow to the master of the guitar tapping! I chose the world famous solo from the first official Van Halen album (same title), but this is another version, played live at a gig... never stops being awesome to listen and look at!
# 2Adje Vandenberg, the creator of his own 'double-sounding' guitarplay! I chose the song I knew everyone would know from when he was with Whitesnake, but it's not his best solo ever though... not by far even, this is simple stuff...
# 3Steve Vai, a guitarplayer that is both awesome in play as in artwork! I chose a song he made with Whitesnake (yes he was in that band too!), so not one from when he was solo... and those are even better, waaaayyyy better!
