That doesn't make one a great soloist.

A great soloist can also make his guitar whisper, cry, laugh, moan, etc.

I dont like the guys music that much, but you can't say the guy isn't talented, other than his technical skill he is very creative for his tone variety and choice of styles, hes not your conventional shreder either, in fact on several records he dosent really shred at all, and instead sticks to a more tasteful style of playing ala Eric Johnson and Shawn Lane...I would consider him a top 50 guitarist.
