Just got back from picking up the new axe and amp. I'm now one step closer to Jimmy Page!

The pick guard didn't last a full minute at my house before the screwdriver came out...

Good, I hate those pick guards. Ruins the beautiful look. Nice guitar.

I was a junkie of 80s hairbands and the best guitar solo I've seen was from Akira Takasaki of the Japanese band Loudness. Compilation below. He was fast before most of the speed guys were fast.

Jk, here's my contribution (to the thread, not the Guttermouth song)

Killswitch cover of an oldie by Dio, with a little bit of a video tribute to the original. I like the harder version better. (just had some weird dejavu too).

About 2:08, short, simple, not overly technical

And of course Sanitarium...

If you are talking about not overly technical solos, you MUST listen to this solo also at 2:08. You've probably heard the song a million times (well, if you were from my generation you would have) but never really thought about what he was doing on the solo.
