FSOL: Dead Cities--lots of wah guitar,
Muziq, same
Psychedelic Research Labs has several acoustic guitar oriented tracks.
777
Plenty more, no doubt.
Guitars can add much to any electronica, as they are great tools, if used
well.

My mileage varies. Cybotron - "Techno City" (1984) IMO defines the
original spirit of techno: moody, synthetic, thematic dance music with
extended instrumental passages and soulful yet otherworldly vocals. It
quite prominently uses guitar.. not exceptionally well, but without it the
song would have a completely different feel.
Other examples out there? I can think of a couple of techno tracks that
use acoustic guitar loops to great effect.
