Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall, Part Two
The guitar solo starts at 2:17 and ends at 3:22 (the above video ends a bit earlier though). This is the best guitar solo for me, because despite being a long (almost a minute) one it is still catchy and at least I love humming it in its entirety. Also, the guitar tone and slides are absolutely mind blowing.

I like that solo too. Let's see how many Pink Floyds we're getting. 😄 Thanks for sharing @LoveEnigma

I see your Another Brick solo and I raise you Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb live, Earls Court 1994. It's a mere 4:25 and starts at 4:56.
Reason? I was there. One of the very best concerts I've ever been too. So that's two solos from The Wall, what's next?!

From 1973. The full version of Summer Breeze. The Solo isn't included in the radio edit.
Starts at 3:51
Why did I choose this? Listening will explain all.

I would have to go with Eddie Van Halen's eruption. (Solo starts at 2:30 in the video above and what's on the album starts at 4:30) Such an amazing solo. It is unreal that anyone can play notes on a guitar so fast!

For me it's John Mayer's Slow Dancing In A Burning Room. Just cause it's interesting to see how his solo has changed so much over the years, from a "dramatic" version like this one from almost 10 years ago to a more subdued version you saw in his recent US tour.
Starts 4:28

Enigma - I Love You... I'll Kill You
Just in case a second entry is permitted. I don't think anyone else would mention this, but this is my second favorite guitar solo from one of favorite songs ever. Again, a long yet hummable one! If you didn't already by now, now you know where my username comes from. ;)
Starts at 4:59 and ends at 6:38.

Q: Is this voucher exclusively for Electric Mint purchase? What if the winner has already bought it? If so, can it be used for something else?

You guys know the classics so I'll post something relatively recent. I love this because Prince is just in his element and free here. If music is a language then Prince just explained how it works here.

My favorite guitar solo is on Journey's Anyway You Want It. It brings back memories of me trying to nail every note on it while playing Rock Band 2 lol. I always managed to play the first solo correctly but that second solo always got the best of me. First solo is at 2:08. Second solo it at 3:05.

No doubt that Steve Vai is a legend and all his creations masterpieces but this one in particular always leaves me in awe because how can a man be so connected to a beast of metal and wood that it's completely a part of him? It's the best guitar solo in the world for me because while Steve plays here you can literally see him speaking through the guitar which is the peak of expression one can achieve in their art/creations. I think nothing can beat a talking guitar, it's as close as one gets to the realm of the impossible.

Telephone Song - The Vaughan Brothers
So many to choose from but this one stands out a bit for me - I think it's the great SRV's finest. It's funky and upbeat, and he makes the guitar sing, cry, and scream! His bends on this are incredible and his fills with the Wah pedal throughout are spot on. A great performance from a legend.
