On Soloing is a great article from Jazz Guitar magazine. Really, these principles are true for any type of guitar playing. Most importantly: don't mess around with your sound. Find one or two tones that work for you, and stop.
This is something that I've been looking at. Yes, I'm enamored of the fact that my guitar has a lot of different tones available just by varying the volume control, but they're all very similar at their core. I've been laying into just one or two sounds with my practice gear, and it makes it much easier for me to focus on practicing, instead of constantly twiddling knobs.
Get a good sound, and stay there.
