How about some bluegrass? Maybe some folk and instrumental guitar? A great place to start is with Leo Kottke's 6 and 12 String Guitar album:

This album is a classic and has huge crossover appeal. Even if you're not generally into this genre, please give it a listen. It's a little like how Kind of Blue or Time Out can turn people into jazz fans - it is that good.

My favorite non-lyrical music has got to be the instrumental.

+1 on the Buckethead suggestion, he'll keep you occupied for 3 years at least. Some of the most beautiful music you'll ever hear can be found amongst his work. Here's a free album to get you started: AlleyJazz's downloads: Giant Robot NTT (mp3) and MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service (Apple Lossless)

I also suggest Mike Oldfield - try "Music of the Sphere's" (classical) or "Tubular Bells 2003" (instrumental).

^Another for Leo Kottke's *6 & 12-String Guitar* -- Add *John Fahey - Best of the Vanguard Years*.

^Another for Brian Eno's ground-breaking ambient music. Add *Music for Airports: Ambient 1*, *The Pearl (with Brian Budd)*, and that stupendously silly *My Life in the Bush of Ghosts (with David Byrne)*.

Bill Frisell - Quartet

Guitar, trumpet, trombone and tuba (sometimes violin)

Doesn't fit neatly in any genre.

Oh, yeah! I definitely second anything by Bill Frissel. He is awesome!
