Not to hijack a thread or anything, but what guitar solos that are widely regarded as great aren't "pretty old school"? The last one I heard in mainstream rock that I really liked was Kim Thayil's solo in Black Hole Sun in the early 90s, and that one was as overplayed as Stairway. I like some Queens of the Stone Age solos but don't know if Josh Homme is regarded as a guitar god like Clapton, Knopfler and Perry either. Same with the Mars Volta. And I like a lot of indie rock but I'm not really hearing too many future inclusions in Guitar Hero from that direction. The kids who are picking up a guitar for the first time today, what are they trying to play? It's not really the kind of thing you can google.
