The part marked '*' is to be played as a funky rhythm (listen to

Then repeat Main Melody.
Then start feeding back just on all the open notes using the whammy.
Finally hit all open strings and do a severe whammy dive.
I'm not gonna write out the rest because it would be a bit hard to do

he does this
section almost note-for-note. Anyway it is played over the
bass vamp of...
