Chet Atkins was a big influence on Tommy Emmanuel. Atkins was impressed with Tommy's talent. Tommy was on Chet's final album. Chet named him a Certified Guitar Player along with four other guitarists. This battle was between two great guitarists who would probably be happy with whoever won.
The results were close as one would expect. Tommy won 5 to 3.

Not a bad outcome for someone going up against a venerated musician such as Atkins.
