How do I blend all the licks to create a solo? Is it even possible?

You learn and practice chords, scales, licks, melodies, etc. everything you can! And then you practice playing those things in a song at the appropriate moment.

Basically you have to create your own "pre-programmed" catalog of licks you can pull out at a moment's notice to use whenever you desire the sound of "that lick" in "that place".

How do you know which lick goes where? :) I have many tutorials that can teach you how to learn this:
