Okay Nile Rogers is okay too if you like rubbish music, there I've said it : )
Pete Townshend is similar - the drums and bass are counterpoints to his guitar driving the music, not the rhythmic foundation.

Right this minute, the most "invisible" rhythm guitarist I can think of is Simon Nicol. I struggle to think of anything he has ever performed on record that gets in the way of the song.
I dont know if Lady Bo was the best rythmn guitarist but she was always the coolest.
also Carlos Alomar
*An Official Foo-Approved guitarist since Sept 2023.
You're ignoring a whole approach to music and presenting songs.
There’s loads of great rhythm players out there. It depends how you define best I think we are all really just putting forward our favourites.
Paul Jackson Jr.
Elvis Presley, try playing Mystery Train!
John Wilkinson Elvis guitarist in 70's had to play everything thrown at him.
Pete Townsend, crap lead player, but that was done by Entwhistle anyway.
Has to be Rick Parfitt for sheer power and rock solid timing.
.......because he could play Rhythm AND lead at the same time
Honourable mentions:
Bettencourt
Mustaine
