The Edge is a great example
To be fair, I don't think I've ever heard somebody namecheck the Edge when talking about great guitarists. U2 come from a period when the mission statement of their genre (post punk/ new wave/ pre-alt rock, whatever) was to move away from guitar being the main focal point and create music where all sound aspects contribute equally. U2 was part of a resistant reaction to guitar-hero rock.
It's silly to even mention him at all in this context.

maybe so ... this is a very interesting question because you really have to seperate the guitar player from the band they are well known for ( or bands) and look at how technically sound they are ...there are 3 guitar players who changed the instrument so to speak and none of them should ever be considered overrated : Hendrix...EVH and Yngwie Malmsteen
And aside from Hendrix , i personally like others before Eddie and Yngwie but cannot deny them their place as game changers
