or either you can use my tab when i release it, if you wish.

[Shalinar]

Yeah you can use it. That's what its there for

Alright!! at long last, I have finished tabbing out this entire solo! Please use, enjoy, critique, etc

PS: Please note that the second guitar is in Drop B tuning to do the tapping, whereas the first guitar is in standard tuning. This is because i tabbed out the whole first part before the tapping, then realized that the tapping had to be in Drop B, and i didnt have enough time to change the first half to drop b and fix all the notes. Sorry for the inconvenience

I also tabbed out the pre-solo bit, and have the main riff tab courtesy of Mashed

Nice work, some of the shifts are rather impossible though (from 2 to 7 is impossible unless you have huge hands) so I have altered it and moved the high notes on the A string to lower fretted D string notes to make it easier to play:

EDIT: there are also some shifts from 2 on the A string to 6/7 on the D string which are quite hard to reach quickly enough, so consider moving the latter to 1/2 respectively on the G string. (bar 14 you will see i moved one to a 2 on G string to make that bit easier)

ping

now just amend the solo to the end of that and we're in business!

[LymphoCite_T]

i think we've lost something 
my part was just a preview, not full pre-solo
i think i complete it when i have time 

[Deep]

Well, feel free to use my alterations in your full tab

@Shalinar
Hey nice tab. I just edited your tab to make it easier to play and transposed (needed refingering here and there, shifted the position and strings of some notes) it to be able to play it on one guitar (C# standard tuning with dropped B). I think i used the first tab on this page originally so it might not be 100%.
Here it is:

If theres problems let me know.

Sounds good, thank you for transposing it onto a Drop B guitar for me The only problem I can hear is that you left out the slides. If you listen to it slowly (I use a slow down program so i make sure i catch all the notes), you can clearly hear where he slides. The only major one would be the one in the third measure, but it's difficult to do in your new fingering. It should be when the second 17th fret (on the G String) in that measure slides up to the 16th fret following it (on the B String). But thats not a huge problem, it doesn't ruin the whole solo without one little slide ;P

Other than that, sounds great! Good work!

Someone (i dont know who) made this tab ages ago, it sounds way more accurate than any of yours. =)
