I wouldn't call Pat Metheny modern jazz. This term was coined decades before metheny.
Years age metheny put out an album of standards in that style of head solo.
He sounded to me more of student player than a pro. 


As a guitarist I would not rank him with any of the greats like Joe Pass, Pat Martino or
Jimmy Bruno. 

He makes nice music and I've seen him live. I used to listen to as Wichita Falls so does
Wichita Falls all the time.
