Greetings from good old germany to all you guitar maniacs in the world!

I%d like to add another version of the guitar solo of "One Of Us".

IMHO, it%s a rather complete transcription. I posted it, %cause I think

that the previous tabs are incomplete as for some bars.

Hints: The solo is played by using the standard E-A-D-G-B-E tuning with a

warm fuzz sound. For each bar there%s the time measure noticed, so it%s

more convenient to figure out the timing. Mainly the solo consists of eighth

notes with some sixteenth added. It%s rather easy to play, once you have

understood the phrasing of the melody. The only difficulty appears in bar 13,

where I remarked "hold bend". This bar holds a kind of playing technique

that is often used in country rock. I call it "double stop bending". To play

it correctly, put the first finger (left hand) on the 14th fret of the B-string

and the third finger on the 16th fret G-string and immediately bend up

to the 18th fret G-string. The following C sharp notes are played

while holding the bend. Same with the following combination.

Have fun and feel free to give some coments.

Keep on rockin and posting tabs.
