Jimi Hendrix has been named as the Greatest Guitarist of all time in a new poll by Rolling Stone.

The rock magazine assembled a panel of top guitarists & other experts including Dan Auerbach (Black Keys), Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins), Dave Davies (The Kinks), Albert Hammond Jr (The Strokes), Lenny Kravitz & Elliot Easton (The Cars) plus over 40 others to cast their votes for their top 100 guitarists of all time.

There are no surprises in the Top 10 with the same namess appearing here as they have done on countless other 'Top Guitarist' polls through the years, only in a slightley different order.
