Ace's SOLO!!! This is a basic Chuck Berry type solo
while bending and holding the Gstring on the 7th fret
to match to sound of B string on the 5th fret
for the first two licks.
The next 3 licks of the solo are very Chuck Berryish:
Basically play the first lick without holding the note,
then walk down the guitar neck from the 6th fret
while bending the 8th, 9th,10th and 11th Gstrings
to sound like the 6th,7th,8th,and 9th B string frets,
then end the solo on a D power chord (A string, 5th fret)
