Jazz guitar tone's a funny one. Was listening to Kenny Burrell's A Night at the Vanguard album. Stellar stuff, and a classic jazz tone, but at the same time I find my ears wanting tonal variety. I think there's something about the soupy midrangey live Gibson sound that can sound a bit tiring on the ears.
I think that what I really like from guitar in that kind of setting is a bit of acoustic top end. I like when players mike the instrument itself. You need the right kind of top end really... If it's just the pick up tone it can be a bit bright. Obviously in the days of recording on one mic, you would naturally get some of the acoustic tone from the box.
Chico Pinheiro seems to be using a DPA mic for this purpose and has a great tone that I find very attractive to my ears.

Related to tonal variety; (starts around 2:20 but one can hear how Philip is changing his sound as he gets to that point). Of course he is using a pedal to get this "dirty" sound but to me it makes the solo much more interesting (verses if he just stayed with the same sound for the entire solo).
-
Larry Carlton first, then Grant Geissman, his solo over Chuck Mangione's "Feels so good" is amazing, Martin Taylor, Pat Metheny on One Quiet Night, SRV, Anthony Wilson on any of his recordings with Diana Krall.

I heard him sit in with Strings Attached on Mark Whitfield's guitar and he sounded great on that one too.
The first tune in the video is Tempestade, an original. The drummer is Rafa Barata, who toured with Eliane Elias, among other credits. World class player. I'm always amazed how comfortable Chico's groups are in odd meters.

He doesn't always use the mic. Here is what a carved-top archtop is supposed to sound like. I really want a Bravo Elite, but I don't have 15 large in disposable funds.

The tone Kenny Burrell gets on “Weaver of Dreams” is so gorgeous. I just personally wish he didn’t roll the tone knob so far back (or cut top end off with EQ). It seems so airy and bell-like and then flattened too much for my personal taste.

With a guitar and amp there is the obvious output tone that is heard, but there is also a much more subtle aspect of tone that interacts with the connection between the player's ears and fingers. People are mentioning the tone of being close to breakup - the glassy region of increased compression and sustain that emerges before rolling into over drive, where it sounds like the strings just sing, the response is vivid, chords are alive and balanced, dynamics and phrasing come easy, naturally... because you have added a few additional degrees of freedom beyond the absolutely clean tone. There are endless ways to describe this, but you know when it is happening because the ear, hands, guitar, and amp all sound like they become fused into the tone zone. It is a little bit like the difference between playing just slightly out of tune and playing in perfect tune - it becomes physically and mentally easier to hear and play.
Recording and touring pros have a lot of opportunities to explore how to find this and those with the best tone have held onto what worked with their personal hand and ear contribution to this result. Just attempting to match their gear can't include matching their ears and hands, so you can't just buy a copy of their guitar and amp and expect to achieve and hear the same tone. Just like the pros who have found their tone, we have to search and find what works for ourselves... a wonderful day when we do!

Lately I've been enjoying this tone a lot. Maybe I need a Fender amp in my life.

Also, for the modern players, John Abercrombie's sound was one of my favorites. Both with pick (early years) and fingers (his last 30 years).
Cheers.

- Marc Ribot - love his angular note choice and sense of rhythm. Anyone who could have the crowd at a Knitting Factory gig out of their seats and dancing is a hero in my book!
- John Scofield - instantly identifiable touch no matter what guitar and tone he is using.
- Bill Frisell - impeccable touch and time.
- John Abercrombie - his tone and style changed over the years but his playing was always beautiful.(RIP)
