Dave, Adrian, and Janick are each incredible guitarist that brings light to what we know as Iron Maiden. You just can't compare them. All their guitar work is just plain beautiful, enough said.
Adrian is way better than Dave it's a shame most people can't realize it.
Dave is also amazing don't get me wrong, but it always seems like he "paves the way" for the awesome Adrian solo to kick in. Take Paschendale or Caught Somewhere in Time for example.
@OcelotDAD dave is the master, he's adrian's guitar teacher! anyway those are adrian's masterpieces, but you should listen to dave's masterpieces too!
listen, for example, wratchild, run to the hills, hallowed be thy name (first solo), from here to eternity (the end reminds me a little bit van halen's you really got me ending), rainmaker...dave is sooooooo underrated...
@OcelotDAD dude , adrian learned from dave. when adrian bought his first guitar dave already played from 4 years.. but theyre both kick major ass... and janick too
Not "way" better, but better. I like Adrian's style more, his solos are more energetic and strong. I love guitarists when they use bend techniques and put interesting emotional stuff in their solos. For example, Adrian's tapping is not from this world, noone can reach his tapping. Listen to Caught Somewhere in Time and Alexander the Great solos. Also, I don't actually compare them, when I do a guitarist list, I always say Adrian & Dave. Because they're a team. Best team ever.

@OcelotDAD i think the same, Adrian have so much feelings in the solos he is playing, Dave dosent do the same

@OcelotDAD No more lies is the best example of your statement, adrian's solo takes the song to a whole new level.
Dave's solos are faster but Adrian's are much more emblematic to me
