There are hundreds of guitar players who are/were legends in their own lifetimes I suspect. Not all the above are my favourites but are/were certainly recognised as truly great players before death.

Has no-one mentioned Keef yet? Keith Richards please!

In jazz there were many, with only a handful now remaining:

Top of the list - Mr Sonny Rollins and Mr Ornette Coleman.

Miles Davis...Duke Ellington....Louis Armstrong.....C Parker.

 

Oh, and Bob Dylan?

Buddy Guy!

 

And probably Eric Clapton...

 

Here's one that went off the rails... Peter Green. He was a legend and became something other than what he was. He's still Peter Green, but he lost that Peter Green in himself a long time ago...
