Please send me all comments or corrections you eventually have.
There may be inacuracies especially in some distorted parts, as I have
only accoustic guitar available now. The pinch harmonics in the main
riff can be wrong too, because I havn't possibility of testing how it sounds
on an amplyfier. I would appreciate anyone tabbing the solo.
