Any fan of Chet should check out Tommy Emmanuel (though you would probably already know of him). Tommy was very close to Chet and they even recorded an album together. Though not everyone's cup of tea, Tommy's playing is sort of "Chet on steroids." He handles the guitar like almost no ever before.
But he's more advanced because Chet was there to provide a starting point. Could Tommy exist if there had not been Chet? I mean, his extraordinary talent would find its way somehow but he really needed that Chet A. CGP springboard to get going IMO.
