I don’t know if anybody has mentioned, but I’m a big fan of Dave Navarro (Jane’s Addiction, Red Hot Chili Peppers).
 
Hendrix never said Terry Kath was better than himself. A good way to know that statement is false is that it’s attributed to whoever the speaker’s favorite guitar player happens to be. I’ve heard it said Hendrix said that about every guitar player, even those who would have been toddlers when he died.

Let’s not exaggerate. Hendrix did express great admiration for others besides Kath, yes. At times, in interviews, Hendrix showed humility.
Kath was a team player. He shared the spotlight. But in my opinion when he soloed he was as good as Hendrix or “better.” Kath was certainly a more complete musician, considering his fabulous vocals.

You’re the one spreading the urban legend, not me. So, you’re right. Let’s not exaggerate.
 
I’ll also add that Kath is criminally underrated on “greatest” lists. That it took so long for Chicago to be inducted into the RRHF is ridiculous. Peter Cetera blew off the ceremony; I don’t really blame him too much.
Kath even made the softer songs pop, like here:

Hendrix is considered to be a sloppy player technically, that doesn’t mean he isn’t a good guitar player.

I like Hendrix, but I’m not sure how I feel about him as a guitar player.
 
Yes!!! DF was an incredible player, especially in concert. Highly underrated for his acoustic playing in particular.

Add George Harrison and Keith Richards to your list and you have my list!
 
@MaineCoonKitty Agreed!

Judging by your screen name, we might also share a mutual love for cats…?

I have 3 year old Siberian. Would LOVE to have a Maine Coon!
 
Hi!

I think you are correct. My Maine Coon was 12 when he passed 3 years ago from lymphoma. He was 32 lbs and more like a dog than a cat. Loved water and swam in the pool with us. Played fetch and walked on a lease. I am just at the point where I’m thinking of getting another one. We miss him terribly.

This is Rocky…

Brian May made his guitar “meow” for Delilah, so he’s OK in my book.
