For music theory in general I found the Berklee books referred to in the stefanobrondi link above very useful. The Mark Levine ones too.

As far as guitar is concerned, the books from Gambale are certainly among the good ones. The links can be found in the search section of this great site.

Here you go:

Jazz Theory Book - Mark Levine (Author of The Jazz Piano Book)

"This could be the single finest music book of any type I've even seen. It's certainly the best explanation of the mechanics of jazz, and the amazing depth of the content is matched by the care and accuracy of the presentation. An invaluable resource for all improvising musicians regardless of instrument" - Bass Player Magazine

or

http://rapidshare.com/files/24759977/Ma ... .part1.rar
http://rapidshare.com/files/24569158/Ma ... .part2.rar

Might as well provide you with his other book "Jazz Theory Book". Eventhough it's a piano book, any musician will benefit from it. Both books are great.

Looks like this post has disappeared :(

..and most of the older ones as well. So, the whole scales and modes posts kind need to be reposted.
