Are you familiar with Wadada's work with Yo Miles with Henry Kaiser? Kaiser is an interesting improv guitar player who has played in a variety of different genres. Check out his album with David Lindley, A World Out of Time, recorded in Madagascar with local musicians. Great Stuff.

I'd add the great Bill Frisell to your list of outstanding guitar players.
