Robin Finck - texture, noise, chaos, beauty, my favorite ever.

Claudio Sanchez and Travis Stever from Coheed and Cambria - proggy, pop, folk, best combo of the 2000s.

Noel Gallagher - King of melody.

The Edge - Effects, simplistic, 90s era was the best.

Buckethead - Creativity, speed, underrated.

Slash - Iconic, badass.

Adrian Smith - My first contact with heavy music and what really keeps me interested in IM.

John Petrucci - Incredible, even though not my style anymore.

Mark Engles (dredg) - Also one of the best of the 2000s awesome era for rock music.
