Hey. Recently bought a new guitar (LSP LTD JH Iron Cross Snow White), and wanted to break it in by learning a new solo. I've narrowed it down to these two, since they fit my style nicely. But I honestly just can't decide, so, poll time!

Which solo is better.

Hotel California's solo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07qx-k6ehSs
or
Free Bird's solo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX75KJfg2lo

Both absolutely incredible, I just can't decide for myself.

I already play a lot of finger style on my acoustics but that's not what I bought a Hetset guitar for!

I'll take a look at "Classical Gas" though for sure.

I've played a little of that, I'm not very good having only picked up guitar about 6 months ago, but I'm learning.

So far my favourite I've heard is JBT - Ocean. The passion he puts into all of his playing is completely unreal.

The whole thing is definitely worth a watch, but shit starts to get really real at around the 5 minute mark onwards.

Also anything guitar is on-topic in a guitar thread.
I fell in love with asturias because it was used as a horror theme in 7 days a skeptic (chzo mythos is so good)

It scared the shit out of me when I first heard it and I thought there was something really beautiful about how such a pretty song could also be paradoxically filled with so much tension

my music tastes are like 90% influenced by games, ha
