Electric guitar: Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen.

My personal list would have David Gilmour instead of Berry, but it feels too disrespectful to leave Berry off.

Piggybacking post :

Sitcoms : WKRP in Cincinnati, Seinfeld, Fawlty Towers, All in the Family
Wrestling : Ric Flair, Dwayne Johnson, Chris Jericho, Randy Savage

Add on for troutman : you should check out Year Zero by Rob Reid, it's a sci-fi book and the lead character is a lawyer who works in music copyright. Written in the style of Douglas Adams.

David Gilmour - not flashy but never plays a wrong note

Well done. I may think about Steve Tyler for Axl just in case you want to make sure he shows up for the gig.

Then I would think twice and replace both with Robert Plant
