Looking for Jazz emsembles with a guitar flair

I am a jazz enthusiast and looking for CD's that feature guitar passages and solos. I particularly like guitar phrases that echo the likes of Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery and some of Kenny Burrell styles. The Scofield style is not my cup of tea however.
Looking for your suggestions to add to my library.

there's a new box set of "jazz guitar" came out a few months ago $40 - looked great from the cover

Oscar Peterson when Joe Pass and Niels Henning are with him are stellar discs if you don't know about them

Wes of course, Steve Masakowski from Astral Project
is Pat Methany too sugar coated for you? Bill Frisell

I know what you mean about Methany beig confectionary

Peterson's discs - Live at the North Sea Jazz Festival, and The Good Life

they feature not only Joe Pass but Niels Henning Ormsted Pederson (NHOP) a phenom dutch bassist who sadly passed away last year

anything by this trio or with Ray Brown is stellar
