Riff 5: You may want to play some of these on a lower (thicker) string for a bassy-er palm mute sound - I wrote it like this primarily because double digits are a pain to space out.

Repeat everything almost verbatim from the top and then step on your wah - it's time to shred... Solo: Gtr 1 (rhythm) plays Riff 4 throughout... Gtr 2:

Meanwhile a 3rd guitar is doing this: (dotted quarter notes throughout) You may also try bending up to these pitches - the vibrato is so wide that I can't tell if he is or not...

c.|-17~~18~~20~~22~~21~~22~~22b(24)~~22b(25)~~-||   |-22b(24)~~||Gtr3
G.|--------------------------------------------||   |-15b(17)~~||Gtr1
Eb|--------------------------------------------||X2 |----------||
Bb|--------------------------------------------||   |----------||
F.|--------------------------------------------||   |----------||
C.|--------------------------------------------||   |----------||

For that held bend at the end, the part I have notated as "Gtr1" is really the dominant voice, and probably your best bet if you only have 1 guitar. Or you can do the 22b(24)~~~ and then grab the double stop by letting the the 2nd string creep under your finger and re-striking both strings to create the harmony.

c.|-22b(24)~~(24)~~-------||
G.|----------(24)~~--etc--|| Not sure of the best way to notate that...
