 Drop-D tuning down 1/2-step


 Comments: The solo is the real problem here. The main solo is very fast


 in places and played through wah-wah. The only inaccuracy as such is


 towards the end. I have no idea what happens there. It sounds very much


 like a continuous bend but I can¥t be sure. The notation here is an approximation. (I believe it might have been done with a whammy-pedal


 like Digitech.) There is also a solo underneath the last chorus but it


 is very quiet in the mix and I can¥t get a handle on it. I have only


 notated the last lick since it is very prominent.


 Key:


 / = slide up


 \ = slide down


 b = bend (whole step)


 b^ = bend (1/2 step)


 b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)


 pb = pre-bend


 r = release-bend


 r^ = release-bend half-step


 t^ = tap with righthand finger


 h = hammer-on


 p = pull-off


 ~ = Vibrato


 * = Natural Harmonic




 ** = Artificial Harmonic


 x = Dead notes (no pitch)


 P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)


 (\) = Dive w\bar


 (/) = Release w\bar


 Tp = Tap w\plectrum
