Without thinking about this too long, if I had to pick just 5 guitarist that had a Rock sound...

Jimi Hendrix
Allan Holdsworth
Jeff Beck
Eddie Van Halen
Carlos Santana


...and were influential to the Rock Guitar vocabulary.

I like Prince as an artist, but he's not bringing anything unique to the Rock guitar party.

Not unique... but Prince did help to further bring rock guitar into funk... but I think Eddie Hazel deserves the credit for starting that.

Moreso, Ernie Isley in terms of a Rock-like solo sound to what I might call the more "Public Funk".
