I think Jimi is a better singer and guitar player overall. C'mon "American Woman"! XD

Both are amazing guitarists, whose lives came to unfortunate and early endings. Although SRV was quite the outstanding musician, Jimi lead the revolution of guitar-playing with distortion, and influenced tons of musicians to this day. So, Jimi it is I suppose.

By far Jimi he has so many brilliant songs and he even make sthe feedback sound beautiful (Willd thing@monterey). The range of music he played he could put you in a trance, make you laugh or (impressively) actually think about the world we live in.

Definately. Listening to Jimi is great. Listening to SRV is great too though.

Well, I'd say that stevie's guitar has a much better sound than jimi, and I prefer to listen to stevie over jimi, but as far as skill at guitar goes, I'd have to say that jimi is better. jimi also plays a much wider variety than stevie.
