I play the piano and I love playing Bach Pieces such as preludes and fugues and some of Busonis Bach organ transcriptions. Playing these pieces really helped develop my composing skills and I'd love to try the same process with guitar.

I hear pieces such as Jesu and they really are beautiful on guitar. This piece is probably way to advanced for me. I will need to look at some clips. My picking hand is well ahead of my left hand. My left hand can be quite lazy finding certain shapes awkward.

I'd love some suggestions from some players of Bach of a few to look at.
Here's a selection (Bach, plus Couperin, Rameau, etc) from good ol' Mel Bay:
