Out of all the guitar players from the 60s-80s, who is the most canonically representative of the boomer playing style?

My bet is on David Gilmour, he plays slow as fuck , bends and plays Strats.

Such a weird way to put the question. Your question has nothing to do with boomers. It's who abuses their guitars the most.

If your question was actually who's the most boomer guitar hero, the only answer would be Ted Nugent.

Well, I'm posting in the music community. If I was posting in the sociology community, fair point.
