David Gilmour.
But his best playing (from Meddle and forward) aint that much prog. Mostly just rocking blues. Pink Floyd is prog, but not the guitars that much.

Best true prog guitarist for my taste is Robert Fripp.

John Petrucci is an amazing guitarist. The guys of Dream Theater are all equally just as good. Does it get any better than that?

All great guitarist mentioned above.

Personally I like Adam Jones. Don't think he's the greatest though I find him captivating.
