What is your favorite Synyster Gates guitar solo?
Without a doubt, mine would be the epic solo that ends the Waking the Fallen album in the song “And All Things Will End”.
Syn also tears it up on “Eternal Rest” in blazing fashion as well. Another fantastic solo by Mr. Gates is the one on “Lost” from their self titled album. This one is different and not as complex but beautiful and tasteful.
The solo for “Scream” on Avenged Sevenfold is very different and is a favorite among my metal-head friends. One final solo to add to your list of consideration is the jaw-dropping acoustic shred frenzy that ends “Sidewinder” on the City of Evil album.
Well, let me know what you think. Did I leave one out?
