I’m partial to anything Herb Ellis did with Monty Alexander and Ray Brown. Particularly some of the Triple Treat recordings.
Your experience with great Jazz guitar CD/SACD discs.
I have only listened to Jazz for around 55 years, so still a beginner. I have some Johnny Smith and others you might know up to current players. I am looking for any less commonly known Jazz guitar artists and their recordings. I am thinking of minimal processed and leaning more towards standards and archtop electrics. Thanks for any input you can suggest. A player that I have enjoyed for many years is Ed Bickert...playing of all things a Fender Telecaster.

Fantastic suggestions so far, but considering that you know Johnny Smith and Ed Bickert I suspect that most of them are not new to you. Here are some lesser known (remembered) players that you might enjoy. I believe all are available as CD reissues: John Pisano and Billy Dean: https://youtu.be/Tf8mK-2kqLA Dick Garcia: https://youtu.be/hIdHC4S2aeM Lenny Breau: https://youtu.be/neb964aLt4Y Current player, this guy kills me every time.
