#5 Adrian Legg
Huh? Never heard of him? One of the greatest finger-style players to ever grace our ears, Adrian is nothing short of a virtuoso. His sound is so rich and full, that it is hard to believe that everything comes from one guitar, and at one time. He is the master of alternate tunings, as well as string bending. He perfected a style that allows him to alternately tune his guitar while he is in the middle of a song, and it always fits in perfectly with the music. He was even featured on one of the G3 guitar tours- a little out of place I'm sure, but he probably schooled everyone else on the tour, including Satriani.
This little olde Englishman can make even the biggest guitar snob blush...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUpeQytOCLE- fyi...the second guitarist in this video is an unknown. This one is a little more upbeat- not a whole lot of tuning and detuning, but an amazing example of how much sound can come from one instrument if it is being played by a master...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gd4uVwxsSHk
