Wow, he died, eh?!  :(

Totally shitty news. Guy was a spectacular guitarist.

Side note: No player can legitimately be described as being the "best". At a certain level of virtuosity and facility, there is only different and/or favourite.

Guitarists can't even play him with two hands and ten fingers. Which he didn't have.

Good to know. And I am certain he couldn't cop the licks of a multitude of other legendary players.

this. They simoly reach legendary/god tier status in their respective field.

I.E.
SRV, Eric Clapton = blues gods
Zakk Wylde = southern metal god
Van Halen = popish hard rock god

And so one. You have to define them into specific criteria because theyre all great in their own right, theyre just different.

Just some of my favorites....whatever.

Classical Spanish, maybe Andres Segovia.

Jazz, West Montgomery..George Benson and many others.

Rock, Jimmi Hendrix ...Ry Cooder

In a whole class by himself...Django Reinhardt    (woody Allen like him in Sweet and Low)

Les Paul ...another guy in a class by himself. Think he's still doing limited gigs.

Dozens of unnamed recording studio players...never seem to get the break that a few others well known guitarist have over the years.  Great talents, shitty luck or no luck at all.

Django did have all his fingers, however he 3rd, 4th fingers where paralyzed.
Django was a one of the greats. It was more that he created a unique style, scales & way of playing.

Stochelo Rosenberg is one of the few that can replicate the soul of Gypsy Jazz in it's true form.

As mentioned before, it's hard to call any one guitarist as the best ever, but he was great for sure. I remember going to see Tommy Emmanuel play and he was so good that I couldn't pick up my guitar for 3-4 months after....I just didn't see any point to it. There was one point in the middle of his show he asked if there were any guitar players in the audience....I couldn't raise my hand because after seeing what this guy could do with a guitar I felt embarrassed to call myself a guitar player.

Anybody who's been playing an instrument for a long time, 10+ years, on a steady basis better be impressed with Paco.
He's dynamic, crisp, accurate, fast, has great tone and feels.

Hats off and R.I.P.
