In no particular order, and the usual suspects, with a few ringers thrown in:

Tony Iommi (the guy that got me started playing guitar. he plays even better today)
Robin Trower (Killer vibrato)
Hendrix
Gilmour
Steve Hackett (listen to him on Genesis revisted, man has chops)
Gary Moore
Joe Bonamassa
Richie Blackmore
Neil Schon (yeah, I know, but listen to him on the early Journey records. He could really burn)
Steve Morse

I'm also a 'dirty old prog-rocker' and in the realm of prog, I'd put Howe pretty high, too.

I'd also rate Steve Hackett, Robert Fripp, Franco Mussida (from Italian band PFM), Stanley Whitaker (Happy the Man), and many other lesser known players way up there.

In the modern prog-rock realm, there's, Maurino Collina (Deus Ex Machina), Yoshihisa Shimizu (Kenso), Roine Stolt (Flower Kings), Paul Masvidal (Cynic), Mikael Åkerfeldt (Opeth), Ferenc Torma (After Crying)...the list goes on....

Then there's the jazz-fusion players. Alan Holdsworth, John McLaughlin, Sean Lane, John Abercrombie, Ralph Towner, John Goodsall, Scott McGill, Richard Hallebeek, and so many others.

Picking only one favorite for me is an impossible task. There are so many incredible players, with so many styles with incredible chops and feel.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
