I'm a fingerpicker, but some of Tony Rice's stuff sends shivers down my spine:

Bukka White never returned to popularity to the same extent as some of the other blues revivalists, but I think that this one is a killer:



There are others from my youth - Pepe Martinez, Fred McDowell, Skip James, for example.

That is actually a guitar bodied octave mandolin and Sarah makes good use of it on lots of great songs.
