Brian May (Queen).
I love listening to Queen tracks and hearing little nuances Brian May puts into his playing. I do the same for his solo work, and all his guest work on different artist's songs (most recently Lady Gaga's 'You & I').

Tony Iommi will always be my favourite.

[perverse]

this is a no contest win to John Petrucci for me. his technical brilliance wows me every time. one of my favourite solos from him.
