I was ready to vote Alex Lifeson, then I saw Buckethead on the list. Buckethead has the perfect blend of material, some that is purely guitar wankery, and other stuff that is so soulful that you can't help but be transfixed by what he is playing. Then he has those songs that mix the two perfectly, to create absolute masterpieces (Nottingham Lace is a great example of what I mean here)
