It's so strange.. does this sort of thing happen to anyone else? Not just with guitar solos, but anything? lol I just want to know if what I'm experiencing is normal or not.

Glad we could help. You are right, everybody has something weird that turns them on, usually wired in as a response to a particular random unexpected stimulus. Nothing to be ashamed of, glad you see the humor in it, we all should.
But as I said previously, a memorable guitar solo should evoke a purely visceral reaction so listening to an elite rock guitarist should cause a physical response in any listener, so the leap to sexual arousal is a very understandable and appropriate connection for you to experience.
Also most rock guitarists use their instruments as faux-penis extensions in live performances, Jimi Hendrix immediately "comes" to mind (plus as a lefty picker, he grabs and fingers the guitar neck with his right hand, same hand I use to similarly grab and finger my equivalent "guitar neck").
Which reminds me I forgot to mention Eddie van Halen's "Eruption" (first VH album, leads into "You Really Got Me"), which I've always considered to be the sonic equivalent of male masturbation, listening as his fingers fly up and down the fretboard before he climaxes with a feedbuck-induced audio "come" shot (as per title) always conjures up simulated visual images of a guy engaging in a universal guy-related activity.
Play "Eruption" for your bf, see if he doesn't agree, if you can play air guitar along with Eddie, even better (remember it's all in the simulated thrust); then ask him
about his secret "weird" turn-on(s) not involving children, animals, the mentally challenged, any other implied non-consenting entity or any implied criminal actvity.

You sound like a normal girl to me. There's a reason so many guys try (and often, fail) to learn to play guitar in college (guilty). Chicks dig it.
To share one I've seen a few times, I live in a blue state, where most girls have never even held a gun, much less fired one. I can think of two or three times where I took a girl out for her first day at the range and taught her to shoot. I've recommended this to friends before, too. Without fail, the girl is always really excited, turned on, and appreciative afterwards. Something about the loud noise, or the feeling of accomplishment when they hit a target, it gets to them in a good way.

I won't say guitar solos "turn me on" sexually, but they've always invoked a visceral reaction and as a 50-something I still get the same feeling listening to "Purple Haze" or "Dazed and Confused" or "Sunshine of Your Love" at full volume as I did as a high schooler forty years ago. It's certainly an outlet that has absolutely no chance of leading to deviant, abhorrent and criminal behavior, except if you get caught smoking weed while listening, which luckily never happened to me, at least not yet. I will say in very general, overall, non-specific terms that being "turned on" by non-sexual stimuli is a not-uncommon phenomenon that is best enjoyed when kept completely private and anonymous, nod, nod, wink, wink. One generational advantage: my parents absolutely hated loud head-banging heavy-metal rock-n-roll music, drove them nuts that I even listened to it even if I couldn't play it when they were home, perfect non-violent teenage rebellion. Now my young adult nephews and my friends' young adult kids listen to the same stuff as their parents and I do; makes me a little sad to see the generation gap obliterated in one generation.

Heh, I had the image of you making out with your boyfriend, and Slash entering the room with his axe. Next thing you know, all three of you are in bed -- you and your boyfriend holding each other all spent and sweaty. Slash with his guitar looking sweating and holding the guitar.
;)
Seriously, I totally get it! I get turned on while at a sports event! The screaming, the emotion, the fun, and I could go home and have sex before the shoes come off! Hell, there's been events when we didn't even make it home and pulled over! If I wasn't so practical, I could do it in the stadium!
