Brian may used to used 5P(I think) coin when playing his solos to get a more thin metallic tone and bite.

John Petrucci of Dream Theater has had some mighty tasty tones. Check out "Kindred Spirits" from the Liquid Tension Experiment stuff he did, or "In The Presence Of Enemies Pt. 1" from the Systematic Chaos album.

And, of course, the godfather of tone: David Gilmour.

Eric Johnson, Cliffs of Dover
Santana, Europa
almost anything by Stevie Ray Vaughn
Joe Satriani, that song from 3G's or something like that

There's a Jeff Beck tune, but I am not remembering the name of that one.

And that Radiohead stuff someone cited is pretty good too.

for fanciers of the bass:
Stanley Clarke, Hello Jeff
Clarke again, School Days (either studio or live)
also give Chris Squire's bass line on Heart of the Sunrise a listen, I used to play that in my head for years.

As far as Satriani goes I just have to mention the live version of "Echo" from the "Time Machine" album.

My god, that is such an incredible display of musicianship.

All of the other live tracks on the album are verbatim copies of the original studio tracks. But just on this one he stretches out. It is simply magnificent. 'Nuff said.
