Ranked: Best Guitarists of All-Time

Stephen Stills

Often referred to as a musical genius, Stephen Stills was a co-lead guitarist with Neil Young in Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Nash, Young, and Stills. Though often underrated by the general public, he often challenges Young’s playing with a Latin country sound that creates fervor and excitement. No doubt he’s one of the best guitarists ever.

Stills was so powerful as a guitarist that he was able to convince Clapton and Hendrix to play together in his first solo album. This is the only time they played together. “Bluebird” and “Carry On” are his most popular songs.
