Out of those?? Dave! Definatly Dave. No contest. David Gilmour is highly underrated by the way. He's never really talked about like Clapton, Page, or even Eddie Van Halen of all people! He's very talented. When he was first around they compared him to Jimi Hendrix. That he could play like him or something. I can't remember the story now. Plus.........he's pretty too.
Yes. I think David is one of the best. While George is very good, I really haven't heard him do the kind of things Dave has done on songs like Shine On, Comfortably Numb (awesome live on Pulse!), Time etc...... But then the Beatles don't do extended guitar solos and instrumentals like Floyd did so who knows. Plus Dave played a lot of the bass parts on Floyd albums for Roger. (Hey You, Pigs) He won Roger a few bass poll awards along the way! Very talented man.
i think Dave the most talented guitarist out of those and is very underrated, but i chose Pete, right now Im too into The Who too not choose him, I just bought "Live at the leeds" so who wouldnt be into them if you just recently bought the best Live album of all-time?

its a very floyd fanbase here, not to diminish the other guitarists.
but pete townshends playing has never been that incredible. The windmill jamming is obviously very cool, but he doesnt compare witht he others imo. maybe hes better than george
