I think everyone has their own unique mix of talents.
Robert Johnson, quite a strong vocalist and guitar player.
Rev Gary Davis, not much a singer but a beast on the strings.
MJH, not much a singer, not much a virtuoso player, but still was very entertaining and musical.
Bob Dylan, not quite a singer, also not quite a player, but blended together nicely to make music that lasts.
Chet Atkins, no singing, but his guitar playing was phenomenal and extensive.
There is no extremes, it each depends on the music that the player/singer decides to bring to the table.
