My vote would go to Paul McCartney. He certainly doesn’t fall in the “Genius” category, and I find his electric playing as stiff as a starched shirt, but on acoustic he has a wonderfully fluid style that is all his own and sounds effortless. I love how he uses the combination of his forefinger and thumb to create rhythm and he has a tone that’s his. Plus, his playing always serves the song beautifully. To me, his style is very simple, but remarkably effective.
Right after him I would have to nominate Leo Kottke who isn’t underrated so much as overlooked. Now that guy does fall in the Genius category.
