Joe Satriani

Joe Satriani is a 15-time candidate for a Grammy. Satriani made ends meet before becoming a rock god by working as a guitar instructor, even teaching a young guitarist named Steve Vai at one point. Cementing him as one of the best instrumental rock guitarists of all time is his breakout album, Surfing With the Alien, featuring Marvel Comic’s Silver Surfer’s iconic illustration on the cover.

Jeff Beck

It’s hard to argue about guitarists that played with The Yardbirds. All the members of the Yardbirds were Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page. Jeff Beck is a bonafide guitar genius whose work covers genres such as blues rock, hard rock, and electronica. He’s 75 years old now and doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. He has recently been seen at live shows playing with Johnny Depp.
