The best Guitar Solo (not bass lol @VectorZ), has to be - Dire Straits- Sultans Of Swing (Mark Knopfler).

I am a bit biased, I love DIRE STRAITS!!!

Just after 5 minutes in for those that cannot wait (long video lol). but the whole performance is stunning and a must watch!

I can't narrow it down to 1...

Nuno Bettencourt for Get The Funk Out (Extreme)

jump to 4:35, not all the fluff at the beginning

and I know they're cheesy, but Slash with Sweet Child of Mine, and Walsh and Felder with Hotel California

Slash, jump to 40 secs in

and finally.... pretty much anything by Hendrix :)
 
Lynyrd Skynyrd and the solo in Freebird. :Clap:

one of my favourites, could really have picked anything by Jimi
 
Jessica. The main guitar solo kicks in at about 3:40, but don't skip to it or you'll miss the awsome piano solo.
