Best Guitar solo?
 

definitely "One" by Metallica.

Heh Kirk Owns in that solo he doesn't use his pick he taps it with his middle finger. It's aamazing to watch the music video. Another one of my favorite solos is.... Either Master Of puppets (first one by james), dyers ever, or fade to black. Its hard to say when you have two freaking amazing guitarists in a band with eachother. As for modern metal..... no solos found

Kirk Hammet is great man, but nothing beats the guitar solo in Freebird by Lynard Skynard.

thunder: ACDC

thats the best gutiar solo

Do you mean "Thunderstruck" that and either Back in Black or the song before it has a good solo. Thunderstruck was a gre song, too bad bon scott had to die M16:

thunderstruck thats it

I forgot to mention all the banjo solos out there. The banjo owns man. Download "Rocky Top" by Ricky Skaggs.

Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and John Lennon, greatest of all time, even though Paul McCartney played bass in The Beatles, he still played guitar at times.

satch boogie. joe satriani. who tought kirk hammet by the way. or some steve via. these guys can play circles around kirk.

If you are serious, you need to listen to Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. Fuckin' awesome.

u kids gotta be kidding me. go download yngwie maimsteens instructional video. i gurantee u this guy will blow any guitar player out of the water. better than any acdc, any metallica any of that bullshit. he is the best

What about Eddie Van Halen's: Eruption! Do you guys know who EVH is? I must be too old!! oOo:

nope eddie doesnt compare to yngwie. yngwie is my homeboy

its callled chord progression check it out

and theres more to get, the whole instructional video is crazyness. sorry for so many posts

Yngwie is impressive, but I can only take listening to him in small doses...it's ALL super fast scales. It's like listening to an angry bee for 5 minutes.

One of the best solos I've heard is "For The Love of God" by Steve Vai off "Passion & Warfare"

Amazing.

Speed doesn't mean better. Neither does technical knowledge.

A solo has to have heart, make you feel, be improvised.....

Hendrix, Mark Knopfler, Clapton, these guys can play.....

I love Metal, but the solos are really just guys seeing who can be the fastest.....not very enriching.

david gilmore more for feel. billy gibbons too. but the king is Jimmy Page.

as for ying yangmalmsteen. lol he is good but after 1st 2 albums got old. plus he is a asshole. and satch or vie could play way better over all. paul gilbert is fast if you like speed for speeds stake.


but Jimmy Page is over all the best guitarest to ever live. or let me say he is the best song writer. close 2nd beatles

What the hell band was that guy in, the name sounds really familiar, i know my dad likes his music i just cant remember what band he was in.

Dire Straits.

Another gutarist to check out is Al Di Meola, fussion jazz at it best.

Pretty much all of Jimmi Hendrix's songs

there are so many great guitarist. you cant really say who is best. now if you had categories it would be easier. like blues, metal, jazz, country, rock and roll. to name a few.

Don't forget Tim Reynolds or Django Reinhardt either.

Anything by these guys...

Jimi Hendrix, no.

...ok then, forget Hendrix

Why not?

Sorry to say, but his sounds came from The Beatles, you could say John Lennon invented Jimi Hendrix, his sounds came from The Beatles, download the song I Feel Fine, that sound.

But yes Jimi Hendrix was a great guitarist.

thats one of my favourite solos aswell, i can play about 1 min of it so far.

my favourite guitarist is randy rhoads tho. the mr crowly solo and outro is one of the best ive ever heard. One has a good solo, but right hand tapping [the start of the solo] is easy. some iron maiden solos are also good, like the trooper and number of the beast

i think the free bird solo hsa got to be the best ever tho. brian may plays some good songs aswell, but most people ignore him.

Hendrix is a great guitarist. and He does have some Godly solo's. But there not the best. TO me the best solo's are what I play :P. And I think the best solos are simple yet..........mind numbing.

P.S. Whos musical talent wasnt influenced by the beatles?

He said Jimi Hendrix

The best solos come from the heart and make you feel

Tons were influenced by The Beatles, but Jimi Hendrix's sounds, you could say Lennon invented them.

may be but then you could say weezer was also invented. Im not picking on weezer I like them. Ive been to a concert of theres. it was pretty fun

The only fucking reason I said Hendrix was invented by Lennon, because it was quoted by George Harrison.

The only fucking reason I said Hendrix was invented by Lennon, because it was quoted by George Harrison. All bands are influenced by other bands.

ok chill dude jeesh. eatthis:

mine. ive never listened to the beetles, only old metal, like iron maiden, ozzy, sabbath, priest, ac/dc etc, and thats what i play mostly, apart from some punk stuff [real punk, not pop-punk]

btw, one of the best punk songs is I wanna conquer the world by bad religion. thats got loads of solos. and dont drag me down by social distortion has a good solo

that is the dumbest statement i read in a long time. hendrix was discovered by chas chandler the bass player for the animals. and for 1 hendrix played the chitlin circuit for years. and even played with ike turner, and little richard. he was brought up on the blues. he was playing a long time before beatles came around.


and who were the beatles influnced by. can you say bob dylon.



you ether miss read i miss heard that qoute from george. dont get me wrong hendrix liked the beatles but they are in no way resposable for his sound.

in fact when they realed sgt pepper on a friday. he learned it and the 1st time they saw him on that sunday he played it and they were amazed. and just stood there in awe.
