Non-Musical Masturbation on Guitar.
A "textbook" lead
guitar solo, usually denoted by repetitive, meaningless licks, played
ad infinitum by
less-than-stellar guitarists.
The first reference noted was by The Pretenders' original guitarist Jimmy Honeyman-Scott in Guitar Player magazine. He was describing the whole mess of lack-luster, over-charged, under-imagined, non-melodic guitar solos, and the players who practice that mind-numbing craft.
"I got really tired of the
ol' Widdly-Woo solos played by the funny-hat
blues cats down at the local
Jam Night"
