I for one think he is a better guitarist than most of those you mentioned. Being a good guitar player isn't about being able to play epic solos.

Give me a guitar player who plays 4 chords that makes me feel something any day over one who plays 40 chords in a song that sucks or is boring.

There aren't a lot of guitarists that when they play can make you feel what they are feeling. Kurt Cobain is one of the few.

Jimi Hendrix was definitely one, two completely different styles but as far as displaying emotion through a guitar they were the two best imo.

Well this is where we kinda draw that line. Now we are talking about it from a subjective point, taste. Those guys I mentioned move me and influence me as a guitarist. Kurt doesn't move me as a guitar player, but I can respect someone else being moved by that. Objectively he's nowhere as skilled though, Kurt said himself "I can hardly play the thing". And honestly technicality is no where near key for me, I want someone that moves me and has soul; it's why blues guitarists are my personal favorites, it just hits me in the feels the most. Again I respect Kurt, especially as a frontman and how much he influenced rock music with his angst all coming out, it's some very real stuff. But to me personally his guitar playing specifically doesn't speak to me. But it moves you guys that are big fans, and that's a cool thing.
