Who is a better musician, Jimi Hendrix or Eric Clapton?

Both excellent, excellent musicians, but my vote goes with Jimi Hendrix. Leaving my personal preferences and reasons out of it, Clapton was more of a traditional guitar player, until Hendrix cam and blew him out of the water. He practically reinvented the electric guitar, the guitar was a 'part' of him, like and extension of his body. He used new techniques, and did things with a guitar that people didn't even know existed before he did it. He changed guitar playing, full stop.
