Which musician has the greatest combination of guitar playing and songwriting talent?
Pretty sure it's this fella, though I'm interested in any other opinions.

I hope no one here would actually think that Paul is pleb-tier.

as much as i like neil young, his guitar playing is rudimentary. the jamming on "down by the river", as cool as it sounds, is super easy to do

Nick was definitely a better guitarist but I think Neil is still the better songwriter, although i think Nick was only going to better had he kept living .

Basho or Nick Drake

My vote would probably go for Neil Young too. Lindsey Buckingham and John Frusciante would be good picks as well.

I love Neil, but it's gotta be Pete Townshend.

Mark Knopfler, maybe? The problem with both is that their singing voices are crap. However, for Mark I can overlook his singing problem. As opposed to Neil who has never played well enough to compensate for his shit voice.
Frank Zappa.

Pete is such a mediocre guitarist, though. Not even the best "lead" rhythm guitar player out there (that would be good ol' Keef).
