Burn - Main Solo

"Burn" is a hard rock track by Deep Purple, widely recognized for one of the most iconic main solos in classic rock history. Crafted by guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, the solo blends fast, aggressive picking with melodic phrasing rooted in a minor pentatonic and Dorian approach. It is a benchmark piece for electric guitarists looking to develop speed, tone control, and the raw, driven style that defined Deep Purple's sound.

  • Ritchie Blackmore's solo in "Burn" is frequently studied for its use of the Dorian mode combined with blues-inflected pentatonic runs.
  • The track is a staple exercise for electric guitarists aiming to master high-gain tone shaping and controlled picking dynamics.
  • Deep Purple's classic Mark II lineup, Blackmore, Gillan, Glover, Lord, and Paice, was the creative force behind the band's hardest-driving material.

The definitive rock amp of the 1980s. The JCM800's single-channel, all-tube design produces a natural, harmonically rich overdrive at high volumes. Every hard rock and metal guitar sound from that era ran through one of these.
