Answer #5

One of the best guitar solos I’ve heard is by Mark Knopfler at the end of Sultans of Swing - Dire Straits. One of my favorite guitarists is the late Jeff Healey from the Jeff Healey Band, he was blind but he guitar skills were phenomenal.

I love some of the Guitar solos in songs by Muse, but I couldn’t pick a favourite.

Answer #7

Eruption yes, Randy Rhodes > Slash.

Answer #8

Van Halen all the way

Answer #9

Johnny B Goode solo Jimmy page

Answer #10

well…certain guitarist paved the way with techiques and styles. guitarists today dont know how good we have it. with page and hendrix starting it all to eddie’s finger tapping to frank gambales’ sweep picking. to me a good solo must include all of these techniques. I will have to say one of my favorite guitarists who has mastered all of these techniques and applies them to his songs is neil zaza.

Answer #11

Well my favorite guitarists are Michael Angelo Batio and Jimmy Page
