Albeit, I guess, Zappa maybe not as much since he relied more on composition and could easily do without his rather overlooked sheer skill, and the same could probably be said about Fripp even if his guitar work is obviously a very essential element to King Crimson.
Essentially though, David Gilmour is very noteworthy, but I don't think particularly as a guitarist.
