ok..so bottom line most of you don't think that guitar tunning has led to a lack of solos in the recent mainstream. I do 100% agree that their back on the rise..which is great!! I look at them as the "icing on the cake" that puts an exclamation to the mood of the song...so therefore, to me personally, they can never become stale...but ur also right, definately not needed on every song in the world.

I do however believe that anyone claiming to be the lead guitar player of a band, sometimes the only guitar in the band, should have the ability to bust out a few solos..or at least attempt a few.
I also believe for sure that the recent slump was definately due to innability to play, maybe not because of tunning, but DEFINATELY NOT because of some trend where nobody wants to hear them anymore.
Annnnnd that's the botttom line because Hannibal sed sooooooooo.....lol
