Thanks! I've been messing around with this solo since I was a kid right after the album came out, but finally decided to sit down and learn it "correctly" a few weeks before I shot this video. It's not spot on, but close enough. Tips would be to make all your bends precise and pay attention to your vibrato as well. Both will help you capture the essence of this solo. Lastly try to keep it clean by only letting the notes you want to ring out. Hope that helped a little, and thanks again!
wow Tom, the precision of your playing is phenomenal! This is how a cover should be done, no sliding into notes, every bend is exactly on the note it's supposed to be. Your playing is an inspiration. Great job!!!
One of the most perfect and beautiful solos ever written
Criminally underrated solo. I wonder if Scholtz's decision to overlay two guitars has something to do with it (since it's not a true "solo" anymore).

I’m pretty sure Tom S was a genius! MIT, designed and built his own recording equipment oh and wrote every song Boston has! Wow
It should always be mentioned as among one of the best guitar solos in rock history.
PLEASE DO A LESSON ON THIS SOLO
Beautiful solo played brilliantly!
So amazing!
Very nice.....
Magnificent
There are few who will understand the significance of this short clip of one of the best songs in history.
always sends a shiver down my spine.
one of the most underrated solos in history, and one of my favorites
Masterpiece and you did justice to this timeless solo.
Bro that was extremely tasty. The most delicious 1m 30s i’ve spent on the web. And Thank you for all the time u put into this solo to make it perfect.
Dang dude, sounded so good it made me wanna cry :)
