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