[Solo] This solo is tricky to make it sound right, since it depends on the interplay between the two guitars so much. I've tabbed it out one guitar at a time, and since they both move up the fretboard at different times, learning both is the best way to make it sound good. _____________________________________ GUITAR 1 | |

So there you have it! This thing was a monster to tab out, and I'm still not so sure about the solo, but it's as close as I can get it! If you have any corrections, please submit them, this song is awesome enough that it warrants its own tabs! Thank you very much! -the Red Baron Legend / : slide up or down from fret to fret * : palm mute the note(s) above ~ : vibrato the hell out of it ! : be excited!
