There are no correct/incorrect opinions on this sort of stuff. You have no idea what anyone's knowledge or experience base is just going by their tastes, just going by who or what they feel is the best and worst.
That's not my point though, and for whatever reason, people are looking past my whole point and focusing on minor details. So let me spell it out...

Jimmy Page is a good guitarist, but he's not as great as many other greats. There are 10, maybe 20 other guitarists that could surpass him in a face off. So, when that applies, to put him in a top 10 is negating your ability to focus on what playing a guitar actually is.
