Your Favorite Guitar Solo

[King O' Da Bees]

What is your favorite guitar solo?

For me, it's either Sum 41's "88" or Mercyful Fate's "Evil". I just can't enough of those songs.

Must...Resist...Freebird....

 

[Radeonx]

Freebird. No question. At least, for me.

 

[TheLastCylon]

"Don't Stop Me Now" -Queen

or

"My Sharona"-The Knack

 

[Pacifist Chris]

Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin. After that, anything Clapton does live, and I'm pretty fond of any Iron maiden solo, and the huge one at the end of Telegraph Road by Dire Straits
