NOTE: There are some places in the solo that I marked as pinch harmonics(P.H.).
      I don't think what's played is actually a pinch harmonic, but I don't
      know what else to call it. It's the sound that's made when you hammer
      onto an open string, whatever that's called technically. As usual,
      you're on your own with the timing.
