How about Lindsey Buckingham and Carlos Santana??
I'm sure this group here will come up with many names.

David Gilmour. He amazes me by being able to express an amazing range of emotion with an effortless sound.

Kaki King is "Different" if that is the criteria...

Peter Frampton was different before his career went down the tubes and he ended up doing car insurance commercials...

Just a reminder, for those who forgot (or fried it out)...

This is part II, which is the better part!

Some that I think I could identify by sound/style:

John McLaughlin
John Scofield
Wes Montgomery
Charlie Christian
Terry Kath

HumblePie, do you think you could identify Segovia in a blind test, compared to other classical players? I couldn't, but I haven't listened that carefully to different classical artists.

I thought Bo Diddley might have rated a mention seeing as he's just gone to the "ol chord chart in the sky".
