Re: Electric guitar. It pretty much all starts with Les Paul. Not only an absolute genius on the guitar, tasteful and accomplished beyond what most will ever achieve, he also had a knack for electronics. That's putting it mildly. Numerous innovations and systems he created for looping, recording, editing, and manipulating sound laid the foundation for what modern music is today. Jimi was just about to start working in his personal studio and may have been able to continue to build sonic experiments with some of the emerging tech; sad that it didn't turn out like that, but it's life. Just figured I'd drop his name in this consideration, he certainly deserves the recognition in my opinion.
