Solo proper starts around 3:02

The beginning of Mayonaise

by the Smashing Pumpkins.

I'm slow and fat fingered. It works for me.

- Such an underrated solo
  
  Such an excellent guitar line.

I haven't played guitar for years, but I reckon I could do a reasonable hash at this one

Solo starts around the 56 second mark.

Fairly simple. I'm not good at solos.

I'm shit at solos.

Probably Iron Man. Or Nothing Else Matters. Neither particularly impressive.

I play guitar the way a woman jerks off

so I don't know about difficult, but the best is maybe "Hey" by the Pixies.

idk

I could play some pretty tough solos if I wasn't such a slacker.

I can play some of the pretty bits from 'One' by Metallica from memory.

Alice Cooper - Halo of Flies

At one point I could play pretty much every part to this. I can play about two thirds now, and could probably do the rest if I looked up the Tab. Oddly, I can remember many of the fills and bridges and the solo bits, but the rhythm has escaped me.

It's the only >5min song I've ever learned every part to.

Probably Led Zep - Heartbreaker, including the freetime bit. Generally speaking I can't be arsed to learn solos anymore

Performed SRV's 'Lenny' at a year 11 Christmas concert.

And haven't really improved on that in 14 years.

Used to attempt Parisian Walkways too around that time, but never convincingly pulled off *that* run-down.

Oh man, and got so close to nailing Extreme's 'Get The Funk Out' solo on one or two occasions :D
