Ends chorus with single down strike on bar D. Also, uses vibrato bar to drop pitch. Chorus repeats again then enters solo Uses a lot of vibrato. Can’t really write how he uses it but you can tell from the video how he does it. Bends are quite big, around 2 semi-tones.
                    Big bends on these notes 
                    Held for a long-time as well
