[Rygu]

Burton
Stevie Ray
Dimebag
Iommi
Kath

Easy pics imo

 

[Gomi1977]

Page
Gilmour
Morello
Slash
Clapton

 

[weaselkenievil]

Page - possibly my favourite ever guitar solo
Hendrix - if not it’s this!
BB King
Carlton
Clapton

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Maggot brain is the best guitar solo ever imo. The story is that George Clinton asked Eddie Hazel to play as if his mother had just died and that was the result. The most feeling and emotion I've heard in a solo.

 

[TheTickG]

Some great choices on this one

A few other suggestions:
King Diamond - Sleepless Nights
Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss
Buckethead - Soothsayer
Bumblefoot - Shackler's Revenge

 

[Brigfa2]

Dude still lives in the 80's

 

[Goon Dog]

Eruption was a game changer. Maybe I'm just old and have a longer memory, but that piece changed the way kids play guitar forever.

It's not one I know, just played it and fucking hell you're right, it's a masterpiece! Love it, thanks for the recommendation.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Dude still lives in the 80's

Most of the great solos are from the 80s I believe. And this is not my personal picks btw. Most of these I'm not even aware of, had to look them up on the internet.

 

[TJ Dillashank]

Gotta go with November Rain

 

[CHUTE_BOXE78]

Not to be a cunt but, if you put any Darrell Lance Abbott solos in the tournament that's always gonna be my picks. Meeting him as a teen at a backyard party in Texas, eating free burritos was my influence to learn to play with emotion and spirit. Love for Vince and Rita also.

 

[Streeter]

Are we more talking g about the opening riff of a song or a extended guitar solo within a song

 

[ObsoleteSoul]

Floods
November Rain
Kid Charlemagne
Eruption
Pride and Joy

 

[Ima5starman]

Hope we see some Robin Trower in this tournament. Jerry Garcia too but I know hes not going to make it out of Round 1. Page, Hendrix, Clapton all belong in the semi finals.

Smells Like Teen Spirit is a fun song but when the guitar solo really only follows the vocal line it isn't offering much in terms of being a guitar solo.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Extended guitar solo of a song.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Hope we see some Robin Trower in this tournament. Jerry Garcia too but I know hes not going to make it out of Round 1. Page, Hendrix, Clapton all belong in the semi finals.

Any specific Robin Trower song?
