Is this list idea subject to any particular genre?
Id say Alec and Charlie McIntosh are the best guitarists in caithness... but then again, they are my uncles!!!

I remember 2 bands that had great guitarists in the mid 1980s - One Card Trick from Wick and Z-Rox from Thurso. Can't remember the guitarists names but they were really good.
And what about Ruby Bain??????? Don't think anyone has mentioned him yet.
One Card Trick = I played with that band but it wouldnt be me !!! it would be my brother in law, Wullie Mitchell, Z Rox : David Craig ( I think ) Ruby Bain, played with High Society when he was 16 and could take off Jimmy Pages solo in Rock n roll note perfect, also breezed through AC DC songs, anything he played was effortless.
Modern guitar-playing genius whom I've been lucky enough to see a few times live: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbndgwfG22k
Genius is a very over used term when it comes to guitar playing.
Is there anything that guy is doing that is faintly original?
Now here is a guy I have seen a few times who is much closer to deserving such an accolade...
Stanley Jordan!
