Despite being just 37 years of age at the time of writing, there's a good chance that Brad Paisley has won more awards than the rest of the players in this list combined. Such is the enduring popularity of country music, and the owners of any raised eyebrows should note: he can certainly play.

Given his fondness for country twang, it's no surprise that Mr Paisley is a Telecaster fan, with one of his favourites an original '68 Paisley Fender model. He also plays Crook Custom models.
