Definitely needs to be on this thread!!
 
Chet Atkins, Doc Watson, and Tommy Emanuell for starters. Delving into more electric stuff, Clapton has to be on a list like this, SRV, Knopfler, Beck, Paige, Blackmore, and Kenny Wayne Shephard ain't to bad either. Her's an odd one for ya all, Nancy Wilson is a pretty good picker too. ;)
 
in 1975 Clapton and Santana were touring together. i saw them here in Minneapolis. first Santana and his band played then Clapton and his at the end both bands came out together and played a 24 minute jam Clapton and Santana were toe to toe two of the best together it was AWESOME!!!
this is on the Eric Clapton Crossroads 2 - CD set as well.

I caught tthat tour in Portland Or. at the old Colosseum. One of the best shows of the many I saw there.. Clapton had a bottle of booze sitting on a stool next to him that he hit off several times.
 
To add some not mentioned, who were very influential and some of the best I've seen, George Benson, Gabor Szabo and Danny Gatton. George is still going!
