Objectively sounds like he's just holding a chord then falling down the stairs, but somehow awesome for the music.
The Edge doesn’t count because he *is* a great guitarist.

The only man to never play anything other than a bare chord and play stadiums.

...and plenty more.
To come up with something original and recognisable isn’t easy. To do it several times certainly isn’t easy.
Johnny Marr is a very good guitarist IMO. Guthrie Govan is a genius.
i would far prefer to listen to most of the so called adequate for their band players
like Gilmour, Keef, Alomar etc than a night of Guthrie. Who is only really liked by guitarist. I am bored by the third track, once you get past the oh he can do xxx for all his chops he is boring as **** to listen too.
But each to to their own
All my favourite guitarists ‘serve the song’ - the other sort (which Frank Zappa refered to as ‘Stunt Guitarists’) - don’t interest me at all.
Mike Campbell is a master of ‘playing the song’. He always adds something memorable but without ever hogging the limelight.
I'd love to hear some of you attempt a perfect Wilko Johnson or Keith Richards impression, you might actually find some of the shreddy stuff surprisingly easy in comparison.
