Guitarist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Also a solo artist as of recently. Very creative, uses a lot of heavy distortion, compression, and delay effects.
Frusciante plays economically on the pepper's studio albums, but has some wicked solos on their live ones.

Get the emo girlsmug. Guitarist that is famous for using (and perhaps inventing) 10 finger tapping, even utilizing his thumbs. He wears a KFC bucket on his head and Michael Myers mask covering his face.
I don't care what "GuitarOne" says, I guarantee that Buckethead can tap more notes per second than someone like Yngwie can sweep pick.

Steve Vai is a guitar player who is both extremely creative and technically proficient. I personally consider him to be the most creative guitarist that's not retired/dead.
He used to tour with Frank Zappa and currently tours with Joe Satriani on G3.

Get the steve vaimug. On the guitar, finger tapping is the act of plucking a string with your right hand middle finger (the most common "tapping finger"), either open or fretted, and then hammering on the fretboard with the same finger. Usually you will do hammer-ons/pull-offs with your left hand in between the time that your right hand is tapping.
Tapping can be very simple, e.g. 2 finger tapping where you are simply playing a fast trill (like Toccata and Feuge in D Minor), or it can be very complicated like Buckethead's 10 finger tapping.
Many people claim that Eddie Van Halen invented multiple finger tapping, others say it was Billy Sheehan or Randy Rhoads, etc. But it was definitely Van Halen who brought it to the main stream audience in the 80's.

Get the finger tappingmug. Lead guitarist for Metallica, since 1983. Replaced Dave Mustaine. Gets a lot of shit from Megadeth fans and from idiots who otherwise don't like Metallica. He's a damn good player though.
Kirk Hammett can play faster than you or anyone you know, so think twice before saying that he "sucks", ok?
