I have been a professional guitarplayer for 26 years, and it is simpler and pays better to play solo.
I think the charm of the guitar is its limitations-- on piano, you can do anything you can think of, and on guitar and other stringed instruments, you have to reach and slur and bend and use various tricks, and that's what gives the guitar language it's accent.
I have always know this subconsciously, but I saw a mountain dulcimer player this year, and that instrument has way more limitations than the guitar, and the guy was working really hard to play a melody, and I realized that it was the odd fingerings and problems he was solving that made it really entertaining.
