First of all i would like to say that this is a fucking A solo, the best on
the disc by my opinion
followed by home solo of course.
anyway, this solo was harder to tab than to figure out, im 100Û¿¿ Û¿¿-Û¿¿HÛ¿¿gÛ¿¿Û¿¿èÛ¿¿ Ü¿¿>Ü¿¿XÜ¿¿jÜ¿¿‘Ü¿¿Ü¿¿ÐÜ¿¿ìÜ¿¿ûÜ¿¿OÝ¿¿sÝ¿¿‘Ý¿¿«Ý¿¿ÄÝ¿¿×Ý¿¿åÝ¿¿+Þ¿¿FÞ¿¿|Þ¿¿ure i have
mistakes, and on some parts
i just wrote simliar in scale lines, but most of it is correct, and it will
give you all you need to
preform this solo, now i will write comments throughout the tab that will
TRY to explain you what to do
and i got some signs that you probably didn't see before, so here is the
legend:
* = pinched note
hb = hold bend
rb = release bend
/ = slide to note
h = hammer on
p = pull off
# = stirke this note alot of times real fast!
v = vibrate
full half half half

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok, here what you need to do is bend the note hold it, then pinch it, then
release
it while pulling of to the next note.

in this part petrucci shows some of his good hammering technique, this is a
fast
run wih similar technique as in metropolis 1, only this one is shorter and
faster
