Hello!  Almost everything sounds marvelous on a guitar, and these Suites
aren't an exception...  ;D (But the discussion about transcriptions,
arrangements and performance practice is a huge can of controversial
worms that I'd not open here).

I haven't listened to complete (all 6) transcriptions of these Suites,
but I could recommend you:

Hopkinson Smith
SUITES POUR LUTH BAROQUE BWV 1010 ET 1012
luth a treize choeurs Joel van Lennep
Astree Auvidis E 8744

Andres Segovia
Bach: The Segovia Collection vol. 1 - MCA, 1987
(that's not HIP but it works!)

You didn't asked for but:  for the Violin Suites, a favourite of mine (not
for everyone's taste):

Paul Galbraith
Bach: The (Unaccompanied Violin) Sonatas & Partitas
Arr. For Unaccompanied 8-String Guitar
Delos DE 3232

And for the Lute Suites:

Stephan Schmidt
Bach: Lute Works
10-String guitar
Naive V 4861

Good listening,
Juan Molina from Toulouse
