SLASH | Best Solos

[@degreatal]

while everyone comparing slash with other guitarists including buckethead, I think playing music isn't just about the skill, but the important one is CREATION, slash has created numbers of iconic solos in music history.

[@daxcartar5667]

Machinee point went straight over ur head...

[@preetamsarmah9040]

guitar solos are about emotion, and with that regards slash and Jimmy Paige are the greatest ever

[@joeedz8004]

I agree, and people think it is all about speed, compared Slash to Van Halen. I hate when people say he is overrated. Slash’s originality and creativity makes him such a godly guitar, definitely in the top 10

This is what people struggle to see. It isn’t all about technical abilities and speed, and they compare him to Van Halen. People say Slash is overrated, no. He is one of the best guitar composers who has wrote some of the most original, creative and well known pieces in history and has left a huge impact in rock. Definitely worthy of a place in top ten.

[@TyCorr]

Dude, how can you not? His lead playing sounds like a womans voice. Unreal

[@simonsmashup]

It's literally talent to write solos like Noverber Rain, Don't Cry and Estranged. No complicated technique needed, just few notes to tocuh your heart. That's pure talent.

[@killerjp9911]

So many haters on Slash because his solo aren’t the fastest or most technical but pick up a guitar and try playing his solos they are harder than they sound with the way he bends and uses his vibratos

[@andrewbendahan1379]

I totally agree with you. Slash's solos are conditioned to his style of playing. Also, he has does improv solos before and he can play really fast and technical.

[@thekidtrey1949]

His best solo to me is Paradise city. The way the song switches up in typical Guns fashion and it speeds up and gets more energetic. It feels like everything is out of control but still crazy fun and the crazy speeds he reaches in that final solo is ridiculous and always gives me goosebumps

To me, a good rock guitar solo is not about showing off how fast you can play scale exercises. It's about putting that song within a song. Feeling, melody, emotion, and personality are way more important than histrionics and flash. A great song is not about the number of lyrics that can be crammed into each measure, it's about the feeling the song evokes in the listener. No different with guitar. Slash is a master at this.
