The whole track has excellent guitar work, but the guitar solo at 1:58 sets the stage for the even more sublime solo beginning at 2:27 [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bwHK1xkgJA]YouTube - Steely Dan - Reelin' In the Years[/ame]
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUsjURfdQ4g]YouTube - Eric Johnson - Manhattan (Studio Version)[/ame] Fuckin' all time favourite. My neighbours probably get pissed off 'cause I always practice this song... they hear it like 10 times a day. But fuck them.

The first part of Ledzeplins "over the hills and far away" is my favorite. It just sounds so beautiful. I even tryed to learn it by using youtube videos with my gf guitar, To bad i had no idea what i was doing and i have these dam fat fingers!
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lb9f2oIXvA"]YouTube - Red Hot Chili Peppers - I Could Have Lied[/ame] 1:59 God, I fucking love this solo so much. JF puts more emotion into one note than so many musicians do in entire solos.
Love this Buckethead solo. He's the best right now. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqrFesMGtvA"]YouTube - Buckethead solo[/ame]
the guitar solos in this are some of my favorites [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEC5s3nzVzo]YouTube - The Allman Brothers Band - Blue Sky[/ame]
Pretty much any Pink Floyd song has a great solo in it. I like this song, basically just one long solo. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OMFiqNA6Ag&feature=related]YouTube - Pink Floyd-Marooned[/ame]
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtP_HnZgVGw]YouTube - Nine Inch Nails - Ruiner[/ame] 3:00 ^ [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axzRdFOYpqg]YouTube - Pantera - The Sleep[/ame] 2:47 ^
Starts at 2:55 i'm pretty sure its keyboard but its still trippy as hell [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2NgNxbXIqU]YouTube - The Doors When The Music's Over[/ame]
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_3BeBoXoWQ#t=02m51s]YouTube - Racer X - Poison Eyes[/ame] Not my absolute favorite, but up there as far as metal solos go. If the video doesn't automatically jump to where I told it to in the URL, the solo starts around 2:51. Maggot Brain has already been posted but that would've been my pick for favorite non-metal solo.
