One of my favourite guitar players who can really make it 'sing ' is Bill Nelson (Be bop delux)so check him out on youtube...(The solo's on the Axe victim album are at times stunning)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWbShidSq_0
but with so many electric guitar players to choose from for a learning experience then distortion free guitars can really put the cat amongst the pidgeons technique wise.
An interesting clip form 'Meeting of the spirits'

John McLaughlin,(in the middle) Larry Coryell, Paco De Lucia all have a very linear approach
to improvisation ie very 'scale like' with less emphasis on arpeggios compared to other jazz players.Yet each approach the guitar differently.
No distortion on these guitars to hide a weak technique.
These guys try and play every note....with feeling as well.
John fist came to light working alongside Miles Davies during Mile's epic attempts at fusing jazz and Rock together and you can still hear John's sometimes free avant garde like approach.
