Finger pick here too,
I'll run you through this part too, there aren't really any keys on my keyboard
to what he's doing. Slide the 3+5 octaves to the 5+7 octaves, pluck 6 times, hit
the 10+12 then 8+10, then 7+9, hit again and slide to 5+7, hit 5+7 again, grab
the string in between your octave notes around the third fret, (it may or may not
be 3, because he just grabs it.) 10 then 13, do another ghost bend,Hammer on
10 to 13, hit 13, but make it stacatto (short) hense the dot, bend 13 up, then
let it down. Hit 10, bend 13 up, then down, hammer on 10 to 13, then again, but
tap 15 with other hand, pull it off, do 13,10,13, tap 17, and so on and so forth.

If this doesnt sound right, make sure your in drop D tuning other wise your
bottom will be 3 frets too high. E-mail me with any questions or conerns. This
may not be
100%
but its quick, easy, fun, and it sounds good.
ROCK ON!
