Ok, so while he may not be the *best* guitar player, my current favorite has got to be Anders Osborne. I saw him in New Orleans during the first weekend of this year's Jazz Fest, then I caught him again in June in Sellersville, PA and then again last night in West Chester, PA.
I didn't bring him up in my post about Stanley Jordan because he's not a blazing fast or supremely technical player. But I'll be damned if he doesn't play a mean guitar. He's currently touring with the Stanton Moore Trio. Anders and Stanton are New Orleans-based musicians (in addition to his own Trio, Stanton also plays in the funk band Galactic).
Last night's show was two sets, Stanton Moore Trio at first for four songs, then Anders Osborne joined for another seven or eight songs. Set break, and then the Trio returned to the stage. I had to leave early because it was getting late and I live over an hour from the venue, but it was well worth the trip and the late night. They're continuing their tour, and I highly recommend checking him out. Stanton's stuff reminded me a lot of Jimmy Smith, so if you're into that type of funky organ-driven jazz, you'll probably like this.
Here's Anders with his own trio:

I'm going to nominate my old jazz teacher in Baltimore, Joe Decara. He played for MGM studios after Tommy Tedesco retired, and the guy can flat out drop your jaw in any genre you want to name. He has tapes from when he was 19 years old jamming with Joe Pass on which JP keeps stopping him and asking him to show him the riff he just played, and asking if he can steal it from him. Joe used to rip apart Bach concertos and turn them into jazz guitar epics for fun, and believe me they were WAAAAAY better than Jethro Tull's!
Another gut that is absolutely mind-blowing (and completely unheard of) is Joey Fisher, one of the instructors on WorkshopLive. Look for him on youtube, amazing player.

Out of the loop? I didn't know there was a loop!

Some great players on that site. I watched a Joe Satriani lesson the other day. That guy's knowledge about music is remarkable. But I guess mine would be too if I practiced 13 hours a day like he did.
