Jeffrey Victor Watson (born November 5, 1956) is an American guitarist originally known as one of the founding members and lead guitarist of the hard rock band Night Ranger, in which he has played as co-guitarist with guitarist Brad Gillis. Watson developed his signature eight-fingered tapping technique during his time in the band.[1][2]

Watson appeared as a special guest on Douglas Docker's Docker's Guild project. He has also released solo albums. In 2007, he was fired by the three other members of Night Ranger through a letter from their attorney. During 2009, he was part of Dennis DeYoung's travelling band.
