I've been studying a few jazz guitarists lately to try and lift some of those great chords and my two personal favorites are Ted Greene and Lenny Breau. However, any cursory investigation of jazz guitar would be incomplete without listening to a least a bit of Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, and Django Reinhardt.

On the more modern and less guitar centric end of things, I've personally been absolutely smitten with Brad Mehldau lately, and Kneebody is all the west coast jazz students are talking about nowadays.

Thanks for all the recommendations -- I'm especially liking Lenny Breau and Kneebody. I'll be sure to check out some more from all your suggestions!

Just got into Lenny a few years ago, he's fantastic. I really like Wes Montgomery's "Boss Guitar."
