I do not know what scales he is using. Those licks are not tough to play at all. It all adds up to a pleaseant enough sound, but i find nothing even approaching remarkable guitar playing.

And, also... I wanna know what you think of this player:

This is very typical, cliched rock and roll lead guitar, played by someone who knows what he is doing but possesses no special talent. Nothing wrong with it. Nothing particularly inspiring either. His parts seem to fit the song, and that is more than some guitarists ever accomplish.

Every rock and roll band in the world worth a damn has a guy who can play like this or better. Overall, the whole lead part reminded me of the guitar on "Gimme Shelter." There is nothing really new, is there?
