Django Rheinhardt was pretty good at doing solos in his own unique three fingered way. That was a while back.

The original question was "Is the guitar dead/dying"?

Certain areas will fade and others will evolve but it's not about to die in my opinion.

By the way, Nile Rogers was a great 'disco' guitarist with Chic back in the 70's. Also what about the Isley Bros and Earth Wind and Fire. Both with excellent guitarists.

Gordon.
