 It`s impossible to be 100% accurate tabbing a solo like this (so I
 didn`t, I edited somebody elses) so concentrate on isolating the 
 individual phrases and how they link together.

                  The open B is hardly heard as the high notes should be
                  hammered very quickly.

                 Concentrate on strumming 16th notes on the
                 open E string and quickly dart in and out with
                 the high notes.

 Hold the bends on the 3rd string to get the unison bend sound.
