    Have long thought he was the most under-rated guitarist of all time. Maybe his likable, goofy, comic image made people overlook how incredible he was. Plus his talents on so many fronts diluted it all somehow. But he stands on the same level as Clapton, Hendrix, Page, BB, anyone you want to bring up. There are moments he plays fast, and you marvel. Then, he kicks it up into a pace that doesn't seem humanly possible...and it all is just as crisp and clean as when he started. Astounding.

    Roy Clark, Chet Atkins, amd Glen Campbell are always snubbed when it comes to "the greatest guitarists" lists because they're country pickers. Those lists want shredders and power chord players, metal and hard rock with distortion. Those three men are so insanely talented that it woupdn't surprise me if they were actually in the top 5 all time if anybody were to do a real list as far as the ability to play.

    I remember Roy Clark as a kid just beginning to learn guitar and thinking I wish I could play like this man. Didn't even know what kind of music I wanted to play. Saw him on an old show called HeeHaw! He was In my opinion, the guitar player that inspired every guitar player to push passed the boundaries of there genre!! He could literally play everything better than everyone in any style. Didn't realize it till years later that he was my first inspiration for playing guitar. I am 57 and I thought my inspirations were early, BTO, Bachman Turner OverDrive, KiSS,ETC. Then Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, SRV you know who I'm talkin bout. I believe that Roy is inspirational to every musician that wants to be different "Push the envelope. You too can accomplish and take it further than where you found it. Regardless of your musical taste, you can learn from Roy Clark!!

    He is definitely one of the most underrated and most proficient technical guitarists to ever play. He’s playing here with a tone that you can’t hide behind; no distortion no low end, very high-end sound so that if you make one little mistake it stands out like a sore thumb. His right hand technique is perfect. Just because he looks goofy and he’s playing sort of goofy music does not mean he’s not the best alternate picker of all time.

      Joe Billielo Those are the greatest guitar players in the genre.... I'm not saying Roy Clark wasn't a great guitar player, but he was also a great showman... Guys like Chet Atkins and James Burton weren't showman, they played and became stylists... If your listening to music from the 60s through today you've probably heard Burton and Atkins and don't know it. James Burton was the heart of Ricky Nelsons sound, Elvis Presley, John Denver, Roy Orbison, the Monkees, Mama Cass, The Everly Bros, Jerry Lee Lewis and on and on.... He was and still is one of the most demanded session guitars because people want his sound.... Chet Atkins and probably Scotty Moore are the Godfathers of the rockabilly sound... It's the difference between a great guitar player and a revolutionary guitar player. You can listen to a piece of music and say wow that sounds like Burton or Atkins..... You watch Roy Clark and he's playing Riffs from Burton and Atkins... I guarantee you Clark would probably even admit it. That's all without getting into some of the great Rock guitarists..... Look at it like this if you take Liberace and Horowitz..... One was a fantastic piano player and a magnificent showman the other was incredible pianist that had no equal... Both great in their own right but Horowitz was incredible. Roy Clark is a great guitar player but he's not the greatest...

Let me guess, he's better then Hendrix, George Harrison, Les Paul, Prince, BB King and Eric Clapton also.... Jesus, James Burton is known as the Master of the Telecaster.... He's the reason guys like Hendrix, Clapton and Roy Clark play the way they do, Burton innovated modern string gauges to give these guys the ability to get these sounds . Scotty Moore innovated the rockabilly style... Chet Atkins innovated the Nashville style... These guys were demanded by the biggest singers of the time to play on their albums, in thier rhythm sections... While Roy Clark played on Hee Haw and Branson... Gimme a break.

    Good lord. This is jaw-dropping. Eddie Van Halen would have never taken the stage if Roy had have been there.

      EVH couldn't hold a candle to alot of older country pickers. Effects and unique gimmicks are the rage now.

    Definitely one of the greatest guitar players of all time, its a shame he didn't become as well known as he should have. He was country music's hidden gem.

    Hard to imagine anything that could be done playing a guitar that Roy would not have been able to do. Yet, whenever you see these "Top 10 or Top 100" guitarist lists, they always make their lists as though anybody who isn't a rocker doesn't exist.

    Nice playing as always - loved the pigs and the guy below is right they would just show up on Hee Haw. Roy cutting loose on an unusual guitar, P90 on the bridge and a Charlie Christian on the neck, is that where John Lennon got the idea for his LP?
