Eric Clapton seems to think so. I think he was highly regarded as a guitar player - that wasn't his first instrument and arguably not his best (both piano/keys), but I regard him as an elite guitar player - perhaps not the "high note count" virtuoso of a Malmsteen, Satriani or Vai, for example, but certainly as influential a guitar player and gifted - from a musicality standpoint - on the instrument as any in the almost 70 years of the solid body electric guitar.

I'm inclined to agree that he was a very gifted ax and keyboard player. I can't imagine how much this must have shocked the mainstream audiences when he broke out with the 1999 tour, who had only known him as the New Wave synthpop guy in a general sense.
