Gotta be Paco de Lucia right?

Here's a CSB about Paco de Lucia. My son and I are both guitarists, and we got tickets to see Tommy Emmanuel at the Napa Valley Opera House some years ago. We also got tickets to the meet and greet with Tommy before the show. My son said to Tommy, "I'm a big fan. I think you're the greatest guitarist in the world." Tommy replied, "Thank you, but I'm not the greatest guitarist in the world. I do know who is, though." Intrigued, I asked him who it was. His answer: Paco de Lucia.
