play guitar solos?

Question

what are some easy ones?

Answer 1

Don't try to learn someone else's guitar solo. It's very tedius, time-consuming, and in the end the only thing you will gain is being able to copy someone else's solo.

Instead, learn the pentatonic scale. It's easy (only 5 notes), and after you know where all the notes are, you can pop a CD in the CD player and play notes from the scale over the song that's playing. You'll be able to figure out where the "good" and "bad" notes are. You'll be pretty impressed with how good you sound, playing "lead" over the CD that's playing. And most important, you will develop the ability to improvise, which is how guitar solos are supposed to be played in the first place.

Answer 2

I wish that you would have said what style your talking about....oh well I'm going to suggest finger style because that sounds the best when playing solo...
Yesterday
Tears in Heaven
Canon in D (rock style)
Spanish Romance
Time in a Bottle
Land Slide
Ave Maria
If you play classical....a lot of the Bach suites sound great when played on solo guitar !!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

Try practising and fooling around with a pentatonic scale. A lot of guitar solos are based around that.

There's nothing wrong with learning other people's 'solos' and that will help you learn but until you make it your own then you're just copying and thats not really a 'solo'.
