I'm tempted to say Eddie Van Halen, I feel like I remember him in some movie, but maybe I'm just thinking of the Beat It video.

Van Halen's guitar work does make a brief appearance in Back to the Future and the kid in the movie also is shown with a cassette labeled "Edward Van Halen."

It’s the wrong answer, but
It’s the wrong answer, but Sting was in Dune (1984) – He played Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen
Wait a gosh darned minute here. Sting is a bass player. I knew I gave the wrong answer .

Well I guess Sting (who I truly dislike, just as an aside) could in theory be the right answer , but the question does ask for a guitar player :)

That was a very special episode of Nash Bridges. If anyone hasn't seen it, here is the Phil Lesh segment:

Greg Allman acted in a movied
Greg Allman acted in a movied called Rush in like 89 or 90. Really good movie about undercover narcs.
Dune was awesome. The entire six books are amazing. The 80's movie was pretty weak. The Scy-Fy Channel movie from like 2001 or so was much better, despite being way low budget. Then they made a long several-part movie based on books 2 and 3 which was awesome.
Now they're trying to make Dune again and it looks like it's going to massively suck. Oh well...
