now, if i could have a talk with someone about playing to know what the person feels and intends when doing so, it will not only help you understand what he/she does but will make you discover things in your own playing without resorting to copying their style.
and the people i'd love to chat about their guitar playing:
-seichii yamamoto
-keiji haino
-lydia lunch
a better question would be "if you haven't played guitar ever and wanted to start learning the instrument, which 3 guitar players would you choose to do so?" but still, it would lead to "if you wanted to rip off 3 guitar players' styles, who would it be?"

hmmm wow, ive been playing drums for 24 years and i still have lessons because there is always something new to learn, and i don't play or sound anything like my teacher. from your statement i would hazard a guess at saying you have never had a good teacher if that is your opinion of what teachers teach.
