There is no best and that is Allan Holdsworth.

The other best that don't exist are Wayne Krantz and Joe Morris.

I'm looking...I see a guitar...and someone's middle finger? Hey, you got ripped off. Someone sold you a guitar with a big chunk missing in the body! Is that to hang it back on the wall when you're done?
