I would like to know what all the hardest solos that all you people can play. Could you also include how long you've been playing along with age?

hmmm...

i can play:

crazy train
one
eruption


i can play many others, but those are the ones people usually take notice of.

After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like ****, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.

Hard question, it depends. Somtimes when I play a Dream Theater our Mamlmsteen solo, some people (most people actally) don´t find it good but when I play GNR our Metallica stuff the find it very cool. Playn´ somthing by Satriani can be very good ´cause his stuff is in the midle of Guns and Dream theater (somtimes emotional, somtimes fast, somtimes difficult). For The Love Of Good by Vai is also cool.

I'd say the hardest solos i can play are one and shortest straw by metallica. i been playing for 1/2 year. man, i'm sure eruption took a crap load of time in order to learn!! also, where did you get a good tab of the crazy train solo?? the pick tapping on it at the first was pretty confusing

the 1st solo of 'Highway Star' which is actually a synth one
...I had a really hard time figuring it out on the axe..takes some creative applications of tapping methods especially.

For crazy train tab go to http://www.mysongbook.com and check out Ozzy Osbourne. The tapping part isn´t hard at all. It´s a standard tapping lick with dubble tap wich isn´t hard especially if you do it with pick.

I had quit messing with solos for a long time because I had started playing bass and then I just got back into the guitar a few months ago. The hardest one I can play now are Stairway to Heaven(solo isn't hard just the song is so long. It doesn't take me that long to learn how to play a solo its just the style of guitar I'm doing right now. I'm 15 and have been playin for 4-5 years.
