Gary Rossington!
Lindsey Buckingham is also pretty good, and I like Brian Setzer

How about John Fahey? Most of the others mentioned here are hard rockers... Fahey did all kinds of interesting folk/classical/experimental stuff that is highly complex and highly enjoyable. He was an incredible musician!

When you create a poll like this(NON PROG guitar player)you should put it in the polls section.
Not the prog polls area.

Well, I think Keith Richards has played some awesome guitar in his day; for example, Sympathy for the Devel and Gimme Shelter---both are monuments to his primitive genius.

I don't know if Steve Vai is prog or not. I like him a lot. Page and Clapton have always caught my attention also.

People might kill me for saying this but I find about 99.9% of Jimmy Pages Guitar solos to be absolutely hideous, the melodies, the tone, the technique. There were a few good ones though.
but luckily for him all of his riffs are absolutely amazing
my favorite would have to be the Ocean.
Oh and I chose other because I would probably have to say steve vai or Marty Friedman or Possibly even Peter Frampton

Steve Vai it's the perfect mixture of an amazing technique and passion for what he's playing.
My favourite guitar player, ever.

Out of that list, Satriani.
Although I just realized....I hardly know ANY prog guitarists. So my favorite non prog one is like my favorite guitarist, period....so guess my reply is kind of pointless.

Michael Angelo Batio, I don't consider him progressive, but he has flawless technique. George Benson would be a good bet for a jazzer.
