The song is amazing, and he always plays it a bit differently, and each version kicks just as much ass as the others.
James I have this video favorited on my youtube account. Again less is more for me and this is a killer sublime song.
To be honest I have never looked too much into Bucketheads stuff other than youtubeing his videos. Does he have any albums that stay true to this style as wella s the video you posted for the majoity of the album?
Yeah, as James said, Population Override, Colma, Electric Tears. The video you have Bono is from Electric Tears.
I though a lot about this topic and have a few that I always love to hear, not sure if they're my favorite, but here goes.
Joe Satriani, Crush of Love. My first instrumental love.
Steve Vai's solo in David Lee Roth's "Hot Dog and a Shake." 1:25 to 2:15. Just because it's so crazy. It's not all speed, either. He does one note for like 10 seconds. You guys really need to hear it.
Neal Schon's solo in Journey's "Who's Crying Now." 3:29 to end. Emotional, technical, hints of jazz, incredible. Honorable mention goes to his solo in "I'll Be Alright Without You." 3:06 to end.
Finally, I can't pick one Buckethead solo, but this whole song is what really hooked me back in the day.
"Scraps"
Kirk Hammet's "Fade to Black" solo is great, too.
Re: Favorite Guitar Solos
wow that solo and the TIL love solo have an eerily similar sound
You are right. There are some very similar sequences, segments in those two solos. But, you are bordering on sacrilege here. The TIL solo is absolute garbage, you know.
Anyhow, this is the first time I've heard this song, and it IS a pretty kickass solo.

Re: Favorite Guitar Solos
Well I put my trust and faith in you guys
. I think you've got a pretty good idea of what I like so I took your guys' advice and orderd Electric tears and Colma tonight.
Good to hear. Probably the most universally liked among Bucket fans is Colma, with Population Override right there and Electric Tears too.
Let us know what you think. I'll expect the worst and hope for the best.

Man I've been listening to a bunch of stuff off Colma on youtube and I'm so pumped for that disc to get here. I can't believe I was so in the dark. 
Re: Favorite Guitar Solos
Colma's very nice. You might not have even heard my favorite, which is Watching the Boats With My Dad. Very emotional for personal reasons. Makes me wonder why it was written. What prompted it. Regret, nostalgia, honor, pride, sadness.
Here's another Bucket song that is good from start to finish. My Sheetz.
Re: Favorite Guitar Solos
I really enjoy David Gilmour's extended solo in On An Island.
