Default jon bon jovis goutar playing live

is jons guitar playin up to scratch when hes playing live he always seens to have easy parts and even when he has a guitar mainly it is just for show and he may join in during the chorus
so my question is has jon ever played (alone) something that you personally been astounded with like a lead solo or a whole song or something?
thanks in advance
rock on

Jon isnt a lead guitarist. But he is a decent rhytm one tho. You'l never see him do a full on Richie-esqu solo coz he cant! Nowadays its just usually his acoutic he strums along with, mainly for show coz we woodnt notice if it wasnt there during Wanted. However, it is needed in Saturday night and Older but yeh theyr just basic strum along chords
Hardest thing he plays is prob Blaze of glory riff or the Wanted riff which arnt that hard in the grand sheme of things.

I think I once saw a comment somewhere where it said Jon played the solo at the end of Sleep when I'm dead.
Don't know if it's true or not.

It's not. Whenever he plays a solo it most if the time ends up being the same scales as always. Free World, August 7 both have about the same guitar solo's.

Jon isn't that much of a decent rhythm guitarist either, and he knows it too. Look at the Access All Areas video, they say he's wrong again, and Jon smiles and says he played better then before.

Salaam Aleikum,

And that annoyingly repetitive outro riff on 'Two Story Town'
