Paul is raising the bar for guitar related videos so high that I'm not sure if anyone can keep up at the moment. Literally every video is better then the previous one
thank you for your videos man, you are a legend!
I mean…your videos and contributions here are pretty epic too!
lol oh yes "tOp 10 IcONic guiTAr SoLo's" consider the bar raised
@@alexrsmith31 you got hit in the head or something? he's talking about the quality of the video lmao
Overacted when he speaks
That beginning shot of the amp and pedals and then the knobs all move into place 😍😍 awesome job paul
Imagine watching your fav guitar channel, reading a positive comment about the video, and the first reply you see is this:⬆️
Edit: Never mind it got taken down lol
@@hathaway.1166 Well, I don't have to imagine this. I almost expected it.
There's barely any new video out there that doesn't have these.
EDIT: Wait, what? That's the first time I witness that.
Is taht real? What an awsome setup
@@hathaway.1166 What was the reply?
Just curious to know....
@@yystudio1296 It's the board that Dan of That Pedal Show built for him. The videos on both channels go into lots of detail. It's super cool.
To be completly honest, I prefer the ending solo in Comfortably Numb way more than the first one. It just hits so much harder for me
Pink Floyd is pure gold, the compositions are just genius
Agreed. The first solo is more of chorus bridge solo. The outro is definitely one of the most iconic solos of all time.
Me too
100% agree.... and the version off the Pulse live album is the top version.
Same bro

A little heartbroken that the guitar solo of slash from november rain is missin :(
Obrigado amigo, você é um amigo.
Thank you!!
I love hearing these "less complex" solos .. because as guitarists, we often get so caught up in the technicalities of mastering the guitar instead of using it to portray our thoughts and feelings. Great vid Paul.
Same here I often find myself enjoying less complex solos. I can appreciate the technicality that goes into crazy Van Halen-like solos but it’s just not my thing
Very well said
I think modern guitarists are removing the barriers between technics and feelings as there are more new talents popping up in the past decades, like neil zaza, plini, polyphia and nick johnson
Still, these classic solos are at the top of the guitar solo universe as building a melody with feelings and spirit while keeping everything simple is hard
@@josephwong1703checks out mateus asato he exponential the feel with his crazy techniques
Agreed! Anyone can learn technique. But the sweetest solos are usually quite simple, just very expressive
One I thought was missed was Free Bird By Lynyrd Skynyrd. That solo is just so well done, long, and technical at parts all while sounding amazing
If he’d included Free Bird, this video would have no end!
Only problem is that it’s more technically challenging than what he was going for here
Agree, i missed free bird
And Hotel California
If we're talking about long solos everyone should know, I reckon telegraph road by dire straits needs to be there too, mark knopfler has such an iconic sound and telegraph road is a masterpiece in my opinion
Comfortably numb, and another brick in the wall. Two absolutely smashing solos. Undiably emotional.
And how about Shine on you crazy diamond ;)))
It's crazy how John Mayer's Gravity solo can be played on literally just 1 string and sound so heartfelt
I'm guessing you haven't listened to much Brushy One String then... 😂😂😂
@@johnsampson6387 Chicken in The Corn is just as heartfelt
Heartfelt?? Jack? Jack Murphy??
Soloing on one string is the easiest trick to make your phrases sound vocal
It's great practice for when you break a string at a gig
Paul, that was EPIC! 🤘🏻
I absolutely love how much emotion can be expressed through a few notes on an instrument. The names of the songs all fit incredibly well with the guitar solos that are in them.
Paul, every word you used to express the flavor, texture and spice of these solos expresses your playing as well. You are a master of the guitar and I love how you perfectly articulate each phrase as if it were your own. Your command of not only the guitars but the effects to replicate the exact tones is masterful. Love your work.
I would add the solo to Brothers In Arms to the list. It's a great example of phrasing, feel and choosing when NOT to play notes.
As a bonus I would add Apache. Not because it's hard to play, but because it's hard to play well.
Yes! Mark Knopfler, my fav guitarist, such amazing feel
Paul!! Paul and again Paul! I’m not sure if people understand the amount of work that is involved in making these videos, mixing, production, recording, scripting, videography etc. I can’t tell you enough how much I admire your work (putting aside your playing of course). Thanks a lot for great content.
Thanks for speaking out my heart aloud. Same Feeling for sir Paul
@@SambaPame1997 I am not doing it full time job but understand what is needed in order to make good content. Knowing Paul made the transition from traditional classroom music education to a full production company. Respect.
@@OfirOrlinsky salute to both
Gilmour's solo on the song "Dogs" (the one after the barking dogs) is one of my all time favorites. Also the solo at the end of "Pigs" is badass as well.
One night I got really high with a few friends and we listened to animals.
I was never the same, large part because of "dogs".
Probably my favourite album from them. Solid from start to finish.
The solo on "On The Turning Away" is my favourite
For me, Gilmour's solo in Time ....
Animals has some of the best solos, so dope

@@eannaoreilly26 it's a song by the beatles featuring Clapton on electric for the solo since George and Harrison were great friends
@@eannaoreilly26 the song is by the beatles. eric clapton played on it, but it is still a beatles song.
@@cb2391 ok thanks
Man, the attention to detail on all the backing tracks and the tone of each lead demo. Amazing.
Very impressed that you managed to recreate Jeff Beck’s masterpiece.
Long time follower, first time commenting. Absolutely floored by not only the guitar playing, but the amazing editing and video quality in these videos. Paul, you are changing the way we watch guitar tutorials and bringing a wonderfully fresh take on it. Thank you for doing these.
John Frusciante's solo in 'Could Have Lied' off Blood Sugar Sex Magik has always been a favorite of mine. I'm not saying it belongs on this list, but it was the one I was hoping you'd do when RHCP came up. That solo, in the context of the song, conveys heartbreak and it is something I will listen to and just love like the first time, every time.
That's a great one. My favorite is his solo in "Wet Sand"
well I was about to comment this exact comment but you beat me to it
100% agree, the solo in I could have lied is probably my favourite ever. But not only this: almost every live version of Californication has a better solo than the album version's. Cali album solo is just not a good pick for RHCP solos.
First solo I ever learned. Coulda started with something way easier and it took months but it was worth it
Solo in She's Only 18 is one of the tastiest in his opus, I would put it up there with others mentioned here. Just... ahh [stank face]
I think the solo from "Mother" has always lived in the shadows of the ones from Comfortably Numb, but it's up there with it. And the one on the live version from Earl's Court (on the Wall Immersion set) is next level awesome
Love playing that one
For me it's Dogs off Animals. But it's not like you can go wrong with any of Gilmours solos
That as well as the solo in Time I think are both better Gilmour solos than numb imo.
As for me, his best solos are in Another brick pt2 and Echoes
We often forget how big artist is David Gilmour.
"Crazy Little Thing" has a special place for me as it was the first thing we learned on my guitar degree. Class 1 Day 1. Song 1
Paul, your videos are so well produced. It’s a pleasure to watch them. I’ve learned a ton through your playing and teaching. Much appreciated.
Paul, thank you for your diligent, thoughtful & hard work helping out the rest of us. May you be well!
I would suggest Eagles "Hotel Calfornia", Led Zeppelin " Stairway to Heaven" , SRV on "Mary had a little lamp", Rush "Limelight" among other great solos. Slash on "Sweet Child O Mine". Tough to pick thé 10 most iconic. Well done. Great Tone.👍
speaking of rush, the garden has one of the most touching and spot on solos..
honestly...theres really just too many to fit in a top 10
TOTO ....anybody ....TOTO ... BOSTON
The first two would get the video demonetised - definitely the first.
Love both though, I can't seem to stop playing the HC solo these days!
@@geroffmilan3328 Always recommend it as a great solo for anyone learning bends, as well as all the tricky little runs within it. We all know the solo so well we can hear it before we play it so it really helps the connection between your ear and the note you're bending to. Helped me heaps when I was starting out.
As someone who spent over 40 years of my life making videos I am so impressed with your opening 1 take shot. Well done! Love your videos Paul. You're a breath of fresh air to the over the top internet. Keep up the great work.
I was waiting for while my guitar gently wheeps, and when the backing track was played in the background at the starts of the video it gave me chills. Absolutely crazy.
Ahhhh the most beautiful solo play I think there is. Becouse we’ve ended as lovers-Jeff Beck. This song is the reason I wanted to pick up the guitar for the second time 35 years later. Hopefully I wil learn to play the part you played.
I have watched the intro to this over and over. Just an absolutely gorgeous combo of great film making and sublime musicianship. And free. What a time to be alive.
I think John Frusciante is a modern day virtuoso. His approach to riff-writing is brilliant. Everyone knows playing Snow and Under the Bridge in the correct tempo to be a technically difficult challenge, but there are other songs that slip the radar quite often. Give it away with its fast doublestops or the exceedingly funky opening to Subway to Venus immediately come to mind.
My buddy describes him as a modern day Hendrix. Definitely an influence there, John is massively underrated.
Don’t tell him that.
His solo in "Hey" is one of my faves; so few notes, so much emotion
@@vir-daw I like to think that he gives himself harmonic space in the studio by keeping the solos simple, his live performances are truly something else. He can match the improvisational intensity of any of the classic blues/rock bands from the '70s.
Wet sand is another immense solo
So good to find people like you. That truely commits to perfection, to master their thing. You are an inspiration for everyone on whatever they want to become...a master.
Paul is the most entertaining and professional guitar tutor on RUclips - I enjoy every clip of his "Dutch treat".
I taught guitar for 23 years and most of these (Floyd, Muse, RHCP, Beatles, Metallica, and Nirvana--exact same songs) were also staples of my teaching. Well done, Paul. Your playing and backing tracks all sound great and you've got a lovely touch.
I’d recommend taking a look at Mark Knopfler’s ‘Local Hero’, an entirely instrumental piece of film music he wrote. The melody is that catchy that the Newcastle Stadium uses it as it’s intro song every home game.
Oh and a guitar solo list without Mark Knopfler, for me, is not complete. Don’t neglect the fingerpickers out there 😉
I also missed Mark Knopfler... for me, the solo in Tunnel of Love is my absolut favourit.
Indeed, MK is amazing and a true inspiration; Telegraph Road would also be a great addition to the list.
I'm still happy as a fingerpicker, though, since the awesome Jeff Beck is in there (even though Paul played that solo with a pick, it still counts 😃)...!
@@patric1986 yes my favorite MK solo as well
YES ARNO
The movie "Local Hero" is a classic. The players are so perfect, and the garage band in the movie with the classic name "The Acetones" PERFECT. How to pronounce that haha. Like the solvent? Or as ACE-Tones. AS the chopper is flying of and our hero knows he will probably sell out and go back to Texas. Heas the hero fir a few weeks. But as it starts, the first notes of Local Hero , Going Home start. MArk made a love story to his beautiful land of Scotland and the people there. I love that movie! Did ya guess!
You have done wonders for promoting the guitar in this world
Love your videos
These solos are all wonderful. Lots of lists on RUclips but....one that never shows up, yet it is iconic - Tony Peluso's fuzz solo on Goodbye to Love. Amazing
1. The Beatles - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
2. John Mayer - Gravity
3. Metallica - Fade to Black
4. Red Hot Chili Pepers - Californication
5. Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
6. Fleetwood Mac - Need Your Love So Bad
7. Muse - Plug In Baby
8. Jeff Beck - Cause We've Ended As Lovers
9. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
10. Queen - Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Thanks for posting this. I wish I could print it out from my phone to paper. Alas, that requires some hardware...
Nobody expresses the joy playing guitar can bring better than Paul. I appreciate his fantastic playing, his enthusiasm and all the hard work to make these videos so special.
Am I the only one who was totaly blown by the profesionality of the intro? The camera, sound, amazingly mastered solo... I thought it is a professional movie! Flawless work Paul!
i am learning jeff becks song cause weve ended as lovers. my god what a song. and the solo is just something else. plus incredible tone
Hey Paul, what a nice collection of guitar solos. I'm extremely happy to find "Crazy little thing called love" on the list. Such an elegant and rocking solo!
One of the songs that blew my mind completely was Jeff Beck's Scatterbrain. The riff is relentless and the solo lines are majestic. I think it's time for me to finally try to play it.
Masterful playing accompanied by some finely dialled-in sounds for recreations that are indistinguishable from the original recordings. Tremendous, Paul. Just tremendous.
My family and I are sick with COVID, and I’ve been literally waiting for your upload since the last one. Your videos are so thorough and well done. I always manage to learn something and be entertained. Thank you so much :)
There is no “wrong” list! Really like your choice. My list: 1-David Gilmore on “Time”, 2-David Gilmore on “Money”, 3-David Gilmore on “comfortably numb” live on 1994 Pulse (2nd Solo), 4-Jimi Hendrix “Little Wing“, 5-Don Felder and Joe Walsh “hotel California”, 6-Larry Carlton “kid Charlemagne”, 7-Carlos Santana “hope you feeling better”, 8-Paco de Lucia and Al Di Meola on “Entre dos aguas/Mediterranean Sundance”(Friday night on San Francisco), 9-Jeff Beck “cause we’ve ended...”, 10-Django Reinhardt “minor swing”. Thanks for your inspiring show🤩🙏🏻
Gilmour
@@markroberts171 Thanks! More Gilmour ;-)
ahhhh yes while my guitar gently weeps as first song just melted my heart.
Superb playing - precision, heart, and excellent tone. I wish I could hear you play Fade to Black from beginning to end.
Stellar tones, and excellent playing. You're a real trendsetter for internet guitar content, and I have no doubt you're a great teacher.
All iconic solos, but I'll introduce you to a solo that probably outside of Italy no one, or very few, knows about and that in my humble opinion deserves a place into the "all time greats" list: the outro solo of "Gli angeli" by Vasco Rossi. The song was published back in 1996 and featured a music video directed by Roman Polansky (still probably the most expensive video of italian music). The outro solo is a masterpiece played by Michael Landau, probably using his '63 Stratocaster; on the video is shorter than on the album (because of the "5 minutes limit" of MTV and radio) so for who's interested I suggest to listen to it through a streaming service to get the full 2 minutes and 20 seconds version.
Thank you so much for this comment. Just listened to it. Wow fantastic solo and its a good track as well.
Paul, spot on as usual. Truly a talented dude and the effort that go into these videos always amaze me.
This was probably one of the best ads for a guitar course that I have seen. From what I can tell, if I were a beginner I would probably benefit from it. Your playing was excellent and you showed great diversity with your picks. I came looking for some inspiration for my own solos and found that.
Hi Paul, great playing, so articulate, clean and accurate, but man the video's production, direction, takes, it's so classy, clean and astonishingly done, congratulations on an awesome work, great guitar choice even the telecaster to the red special, oh and to include that Muse's intro, made my day. Take care.
Love your new song! One of the best solo's i've ever heard. Should be on this list!
It's very sneaky number 11 😅
My top 9
Time - Pink Floyd
Knocking on heaven's door - GnR
Comfortably numb - Pink Floyd
Slow dancing in a burning room - John Mayer
Don't cry - GnR
Little wing - Jimi Hendrix
Californication - RHCP
Another brick in the wall - Pink Floyd
Shine on you crazy diamond - Pink Floyd
And the missing one is slither by velvet revolver
I liked this list and it'll give me cools songs to learn on, so thank you! Some of my favorite solos for learning are George Harrison's solo on "Let it Be" and Mick Taylor on "Dead Flowers". Reelin' in the Years is a classic as well.
I’ve always loved Nirvana’s solo on ‘In Bloom’. It’s so strange yet perfect. And no one else would’ve dared play a solo like that other than Kurt.
Love this guy. Super calm, polite and tasteful. Keep going, friend!
The While My Guitar Gently Wheeps solo is legit the reason I started wanting to play the guitar!
What a fantastic start/intro of this video!
Not only incredible playing, but I love how Paul matched the guitars themselves to the artist and style of each song. The Fender Jazzmaster is very similar to Cobain's Mustang which was a really nice touch. Then a Les Paul for Clapton's"Lucy", a Strat for John Mayer, and even a Duesenberg Fullerton CC to represent Frusciante's '55 Gretsch White Falcon. Not to mention, the intro was a cinematic experience. Top tier video Paul! Thanks for all the great content.
What’s that silver guitar though, the one on which he plays Muse?
How important is it to match the guitars to the style of the song? I'm looking to buy my first electric guitar and I don't wanna end up locking myself into just a specific style since I'd like to probably try all of sorts of different songs (like all of the solos Paul played here, for example).
@@gianpaolocigaral7416 Guitars don't lock you into genre's but only styles. Certain guitars are better doing rhythm, some are better for live performances, but there aren't any that are inherently bad at anything. I know this comment is pretty late, but generally telecasters are considered the jack of all trades type of guitar.
@@tsktsktusk5584nah man, he'll want a Strat
Because we ended as lovers is easily my favourite solo on this list!
So crisp! Really well played
fade to black hit me in another level, wasn't expecting to see it. thank you Paul
I love the most simple solo of Sparks "Something for the girl with everything", just a few notes, but a lot of energy.
I totally agree with your list! One solo I would personaly add is the one on Paul McCartney's Maybe I'm Amazed. Despite its (relative) simplicity, it carries so much emotion. I believe this is what we, as guitar players should aim at, carrying emotions in our solos instead of just showing off technical skills.
The production values of these videos are almost as good as the guitar playing! Really great work :)
very true
Paul Kossof’s solo from the song ‘Remember’ of the Fire and Water album epitomises the less is more. Definitely worth a listen
The way you started the video just love it❤️
I think the best thing I can say, is that every time I see one of your videos, I have to pick up the guitar and play. Thank you so much.
Great list, thank you. I love it that the song Fade to Black is on it. Missing yet are Jimi Hendrix(Little Wing), Angus Young (shook me all night long), Ritchie Blackmore (Highway star), Mark Knopfler, Jimmy Page and Charlie Starr.
Yep. Mark Knopfler has great guitar solos.
Love how you opened this episode all in one take - you're awesome man
The guitars kept getting better and better. I’ve never seen your videos before so I’m gonna have to look through your stuff but I subscribed man. Great video.
Thrilled to see the much overlooked Peter Green here, perhaps the greatest tone of any British blues guitar player ever recorded (an opinion shared by the late BB King, "He had the sweetest tone I’ve ever heard"). I'd love to see Hendrix in here too, a snapshot of his masterly Machine Gun or Axis (Bold As Love) perhaps. Hendrix can't be captured in a 10 second "solo" of course but I think that a sample of his great phrasing and approach deserve to be featured.
As far as “iconic” solos that aren’t too hard to play I’d add the Edge “New Years Day” (although 11 O’Clock Tick Tock from the Red Rocks concert is my personal favorite). And Elliot Easton ALWAYS gets over looked. “Good Times Roll” or “Just What I Needed” are simple but classic solos, my personal favorites are Panorama, and his second solo in You’re All I’ve Got Tonight.
Elliot easton is insanely great and underlooked like you said. I love his “you might think” and “best friends girl” solos
One I enjoy really well, that taught me loads when I was starting out, was the solo from Santeria by Sublime. It really helped me, as an amateur to get better at not only my rhythm, but my speed, and technique.
this guy is just golden.... attitude, quality of the content, passion, skills, everything. congrats man!
Nice one Paul. There are so many solo’s that could have made it onto the list. Good to see David Gilmour featured but I’ve always thought that the solo in “Time” is his best ever....loads of arpeggios following the changes, and at times a lot of space between the notes. Awesome.
Your joy in these riffs is infectious. Thanks for sharing your passion with what clearly moves your soul.
Brilliant! Especially, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”. Is one of my all time favorites! ❤️
Fade to Black was the first solo I learned on guitar! Just epic and my first choice as a metal head. I love every guitar solo though. They are what made me play guitar in the first place.
Paul, choosing Kirk's Fade to Black solo made my day. He doesn't deserve all the hate he gets (who does?). It's great when someone like you with a voice goes in the other direction.
So happy to see metallica and pink floyd on this list and one of the best for each.
2 very deserved to be on this list Hotel California by The Eagles, truly iconic.
And Commodores with Easy, simplistic and shorter but still hitting all the right notes to be a incredibly memorable solo
Very nicely done, and well put together. Thank you!
Need a version 2 of this with the solos of slash, scorpions, more queen, sanatana…. Dude there are so much heavenly solos out there
Still in the coma of not playing guitar for years!😢 The list is really good and enjoyed hearing someone after a long long time!
All awesome picks, and I would definitely add a solo or two by Slash from the classic GNR period to this list. He could rip when he wanted to but he's played some pretty iconic stuff that was beautifully simplistic.
Also Alex Lifeson's solo on Limelight from Rush's Moving Pictures. That solo is really not technically difficult to play and it's a masterpiece. Good luck getting the feel just right, although I'm sure you can nail it. Phenomenal playing.
The use of a sixpence was so cool and i had no idea thats what May was doing. Thanks!
my favourite simple solo to learn is shine on you crazy diamond part 3, that solo is awsome, the bends and vibrato are so well done on there
Great video. You did a good job showing how there’s a lot of great sounding solos that are doable for less experienced guitarists unlike Tornado of Souls/Sweet Child O’ Mine and stuff like that. All of Gilmour’s stuff sounds amazing and isn’t too hard and same with some of Slash’s stuff (November Rain/Knockin on Heaven’s door). I’d love to see another video like this but with harder solos! This was cool though brother!
For fun here’s some solos I think are crazy awesome
Sweet Tooth/Mata Hari - Intervals
Comfortably Numb 2nd solo - Pink Floyd (1994 pulse concert version is great)
I’m the One - Van Halen
Idk all the names but there’s a clip on RUclips called like “Top 10 John Petrucci solos” and it’s wild
And many more
I love your videos and your talent and energy. Thanks! Great choices of songs too!! Another solo comes to mind: The Wind Cries Mary!
Perfect song selection!!
Ur lesson on all jimi song still linggering in my mind, it keeps my passion for guitar playing alive again. Thanks paul
1. Tornado of Souls
2. Cowboys from hell
3. Blackened
4. Bark at the moon
5. Free bird
6. Second Heartbeat (Avenged Sevenfold)
7. The Number Of The Beast
8. Stairway to Heaven
9. Ashes (5FDP)
10. Beat it
Sevenfold have well better solos than that
Number 1 is always Comfortably Numb 🐐
Sweet Child O Mine and Bohemian Rhapsody lol
Imo 10s is a better dimebag solo than cowboys from hell
Amazing artist!!!!
Really enjoy watching you play the way I’ll never do.
Keep up the superb work!!!
Abrazo mexicano!!!!
🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻
Great job on Jeff Beck’s song. People don’t often take on Jeff Beck. Too many songs to add, but, Frampton, “Do you feel like we do?” Steely Dan, “reeling in the years,” Stevie Ray Vaughan, “Lenny,” and Allman Brothers “Jessica.” The neck on the Silver guitar was beautiful wood.
I too, adore, Gravity's solo, I can't believe it's not often performed live and doesn't really get much love
Lovely Paul. I set myself Larry Carlton’s Kid Charlemagne solo as a lockdown challenge. Less mainstream. But a quality piece of work and a good challenge.
This most underrated and overlooked tune should be checked out: "Tunnel of Love" - Dire Straits, at minute 5.59. One of the most simple and yet amazing moving solos I've ever heard.
BTW.... Your vids are truly fantastic and extremely well made. The best I've seen so far 👏👏👏
All of these solos are very intimate and heartfelt, not the usual "show offs" many guitarists pick. Excellent choices!
What I love so much about Paul is despite being an insanely talented player and clearly a genius, he gives props to other players as if he were still a beginner.
You don’t even have to be a guitarist to enjoy Paul’s videos, like his cinematic intros are amazing.
