But What are Guitar solos Anyway?
Start to Improvise and Solo on Guitar - Fast! - McCabe Guitar Tuition
To begin with, we can say that guitar solos are instrumental parts, and as such they provide a great opportunity for the guitar to abandon the accompaniment role and be more of a leader.
Guitar solos fulfill a really important role in the song, (no... not to show off man!) In any song with vocals, the song gets to certain points where a vocal break is needed. Not only from the singer/vocal perspective (to rest) but also for the song construction sake...
Imagine if you hear a song with no instrumental gaps...it would be terrible! But guitar solos can give those breaks, and keep the song interesting at the same time. That's why we need to make sure they are well crafted.
There are a great number of different possibilities in solos, but something we know for sure, is that guitar solos always need to be aligned with the style of the song.
Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music - Jimi Hendrix
What Kind of Solos are There?
Melodies - Some solos are basically melodies; an already used melody in the song, or a new one, is presented in a highly expressive and embellished way.

Duncan
▶ Kiana: For the past handful of years, hiding behind anonymous words suited me just fine. I could twist them, expressing myself, and know that people found something of themselves when they were sung. But anonymity is no longer possible. As much as I want to, I can't keep my head buried in the sand and ignore everything around me. Ignore the past and its importance. I'm stepping out of the shadows, in part because I don't have a choice. The other part, though... Because I want to take the plunge and see what's on the other side. Most of all, find my heart again and get things right this time around. However, it's soon apparent that not everyone is in agreement with this new development. I guess I'll see just how many potholes I'll find during this journey. ▶ Duncan: Most people think I have everything I want. Most people also don't know the first thing about me, just what's out there, what I allow them to know. They don't know that fame and money means nothing without the family I've made. The family that's been incomplete for years. However... It doesn't mean I'm a happy camper when that changes, when the missing piece appears out of nowhere. First, because it forces me to face all the feelings, good and bad, that I've tried to push down. Second, because she's not quite the same... But that's okay. And third, because someone thinks they can mess with her, with us. In the end of the day, there's one thing that's as sure as the sun rising every morning: nothing and no one is stepping between me and Kiana this time. Not on my watch. 🏆300 × Adult × 11/17/20 🏆67 × Romantic Suspense × 11/30/2020 Book one in the Toxic Climax series. Dual POV, second-chance love story. 5k-word chapters on Fridays. Please note: Toxic Climax is just the name of the band. Warning: strong language (a lot), sex (some) and violence (uh... some as well). It is mature and, as such, if this bothers you and/or you're under 18, please don't read it.Complete
