The best singer who is primarily known as a guitarist?

He'd never be held up as a great singer, but I like Joe Walsh's voice – it's very him, if that makes sense. Bags of personality.

Dave Edmunds would fit here too

Hendrix and miller are both known as being primarily both guitar and vocals though 
  

Greatape

Ty Tabor
Kenny Vaughan

Dopesick

Devin Townsend

EDIT: I guess Devy is known equally as a singer/frontman/guitarist though so, in case he doesn’t count, I’ll go for Jerry Cantrell.

Another one - Warren Haynes.

I was going to say Johnny Marr.

I'll add Graham Coxon too

Bernie Marsden has a very good voice.  I doubt we'll ever agree on the OP's question of who is 'the best' singer though.

Brian may I suppose. Primarily known as a guitarist but sounded good on driven by you

Guitarist who's mainly known as a singer - Chris Rea

Another vote for Mr Cray . Classic soul pipes that could have come straight from the 60s

I don't think there are many Kansas fans on the FB, but their bassist Billy Greer definitely falls into the "surprisingly good" category.

In his side project Seventh Key he sings lead, with Terry Brock - no slouch as a lead vocalist - on second guitar and backing vocals.

I’ve always reckoned that Clapton is a far better singer than he’s given credit for.

Rocker

Mark Knopfler

Rory Gallagher

I agree re Robert Cray. I saw a gig on TV where he sang a few Otis Redding songs and it wasn't a mismatch.

I'll add Peter Frampton.. his singing wasn't the main feature when he was in Humble Pie. Some great vocals from him on their records though.

Sambora for sure, as others have already said.

Jerry Cantrell and Richie Sambora for me.

Mark Knopfler has a decent voice ..

BB King, especially earlier in his former career.

Devil#20

Alvin Lee
Rory Gallagher
Otis Rush
Phil Lynott (if you count bass)
