Seems to be ready. Sorry for the delay.
I agree with people that Hendrix may be the best of all time but this bracket is based on preference along with any criteria the user wants not just overall technical ability and, you know, reinventing guitar playing. Have fun. Final four up next (eventually).


Joe Perry vs Duane Allman


Jeff Beck vs Joe Walsh


George Harrison vs Jimi Hendrix


Keith Richards vs Mick Taylor

This is getting easier - but have to think a minute about the last matchup.

Duane Allman

Jeff Beck

Jimi Hendrix

Keith Richards


Keith wins over Mick Taylor because he's the architect of so many great songs and the all time riffmaster.
Perhaps not the finesse and all around skill of a lead guitarist as MT, but his song writing and rhythm playing are A+.
What did MT ever write himself that will be remembered forever? What has he become since he left the Stones?
I love MT and can listen to his solos forever, but now that I've thought it out it was an easy choice after all....GO Keith!!! thumbs up

Joe Perry vs Duane Allman - Duane is a much better blues player but Perry can rock and move the soul.


Jeff Beck vs Joe Walsh - Beck is a more accomplished player but I can only listen to him for short periods. Walsh has played some tasty licks in his time.


George Harrison vs Jimi Hendrix - Friggin' Jimi, need I say more?


Keith Richards vs Mick Taylor - I'll go with Keith for his incredible riffs like Monkey Man even though Mick could play circles around him in lead parts.

Silly to compare but here I go:

Jimi Hendrix, a genius, innovator, a league of his own.

Jeff Beck, soulful, heavy, a wizard of the Stratocaster, and an innovator.

Mick taylor, because it was easier for Taylor to play like Keith than for Keith to play like Taylor.

Joe Perry vs Duane Allman - equal, but different styles.

This is a much tougher round for me.


Joe Perry is underrated as a player, but Duane Allman's best work with The Dominoes matters far more to me. I have to stick with Duane.

Jeff Beck vs Joe Walsh. I like them both. They both can also annoy me on guitar. I'll give Beck the nod, though.

George Harrison vs Jimi Hendrix. An odd pairing, but another one I'm reluctant to vote off hastily. I'll go Jimi for sheer innovation.

Keith Richards vs Mick Taylor. Keith has years and creativity on his side while Taylor is technically better. I'll go Keith.

Allman
Beck
Hendrix
Taylor

Just personal influences, although there are a bunch of players (Peter Green, Buck Dharma, Clapton, Zappa, Santana, Richards, Iommi even) I would put in front of Beck.
