Slash's solos will teach you quite a bit about how to play very nice sounding solos without playing all over the place. His note selection is incredible and he doesn't use a lot of weird scales or fast runs or anything... It's mostly how he bends, does vibrato, or his timing that makes his solos sound so good. Very David Gilmour'ish in that sense...

So give it a try... Sit down for an hour or two and try to hammer it out. If it were easy, everyone would do it... haha
