Shredworthy solos

I played with a guy who could nail it. I know he was working on the solo to "Fatal Tragedy" (harder) at one point, but I don't remember whether he got it or not. Knowing the guy, I suspect he did. I can't think of any guitar solos that really stand out as the most incredible things to happen to man as of now, and I don't want to open it up to any instrument (i.e. horns, bass, etc.) just yet.

i would normally agree, but to play SNA you need to downtune to B, whereas Smoke can be played in standard tuning. But.. unfortunately kids these days don't know who Deep Purple are. truly a sad sad day :(
Also, the best solo is clearly The Glass Prison's first solo. Petrucci IS god.
Bastardous Bassist:
Um... You don't need to. It just sounds more right if you do. I'd say that it sounds better, but I'm not sure if "Seven Nation Army," whether played in the correct key or not actually sounds better than anything.

Is that like Higher Ground replacing Roundabout as the standard bass song? :/

playing things completely out of key is generally *wrong*, though. but, not that it really matters, seven nation army is plain terrible.
