JP's solo honest to God made me cry the first time I heard it. I always thought abstract 'art' (whether in music or painting etc) was bullshit till I heard this;
I have two parts for JP's solo.
I- Confusion.
The harmonics, the unnatural bends, even the way he plays this solo (Score) is just beautiful and makes complete sense.
Its chaos, its uncertainty. Parts of it even manifest bombs dropping (well whammy bars are known for that)
Its just mass confusion, where to turn, what to trust. Its anxiety, paranoia, acting on impulse.
Part II
I don't even know what to label this, this part speaks the most to me but ironically I have not as much to say about it.
When that guitar wails it HITS this spot in me, my adam's apple goes up into my throat and tears jerk in my eyes.
It paints a dualistic picture; I always see;
A kid in the doctors office just about to get a shot. He knows its coming and the anxiety and fear are unbearable. His mother is right next to him holding his hand and telling him to just squeeze her hand when it hurts and it'll be alright.
likewise;
Our soldiers are always known for their oo-rah!
But even they are human. After killing, watching people get killed (their commrades) limbs flying off and being separated from loved ones for so long. Even they hit a point where they huddle into the fetal position wishing that their mothers hand was there to squeeze.
The solo ends kind of. Then it hits back into a break down.
That to me always seemed like the soldier snaps back into consciousness and realizes that its do or die. Time to get yourself together, theres no time for bawling.

Thats what this instrumental section meant to me.
