Ranked: Best Guitarists of All-Time

Carlos Santana

Mexican-born Carlos Santana plays Latin rhythm psychedelic music. His crystalline tone and exploratory style make him easy to identify just from one note. His unique guitar sound can almost take you on an acid trip, which can be attributed to his acid intake. His sound even includes African rhythms and modern jazz, unique in the genre.

Nevertheless, Santana’s exploratory style allows him to rival the likes of Hendrix. “Black Magic Woman” is just one example of his Latin based psychedelic sound.
