Because John Petrucci is different from Steve Morse and vice versa.

i notice that with alot of vituoso guitarists. They're really good, but that's the only thing that really keeps your attention is that fact that they're awesome players, it's hard to find ones that can actually play an interesting solo, without it being just technical.

That's way Zappa is awesome. Not only are his solo interesting, but they're technical as well.
 
Champion of the prog-rock guitar solo?

As I saw in someone's signature once:

Gilmour gets more emotion out of a single note bend than Petrucci does in a whole guitar solo.

OK! So. A little while back I was learning how to "play like John Petrucci" out of his Wild Stringdom book...and there's some things that I get, and some things that I try asking my dad what it means and he's even like, "wtf." lol
 
 
Petrucci, like most guitarists into prog rock, loves the technicality of the music. Unlike most guitarists, Johnny loves playing technically- but he makes it sound right. Sometimes, maybe there's a few riffs in a song where he's like, "Ehh, I'm bored." and he just throws it in because it fits. Hey, I don't blame him, I'd do the exact same thing probably. Only not as godly. Haha ^_~
 
OK, well I'm bored of this.
For the <3 of John Petrucci!
