Notes:
-4/4 time -- bar lines do indicate timing
-in the guitar solo, if a staff isn't divided with a bar line, that staff
is one measure (eg. 3rd and 4th staff of guitar solo are each 1 measure)
-in Figure 1, the spacing for the Guitar 1 part is spread out the way it
is to accomodate the Guitar 2 part (which needs more space than the Gt1
part) so that the two parts align properly on the staff, but the first 4
notes of the Guitar 1 part are played in quick succession (despite the wide
space between the 3rd and 4th notes)
-dots (...) under a staff are for timing - under Staff 5 they represent
1+2+, etc., and under Staff 6 they represent 1234
(Rock on, SW)
^...bend (w=whole tone) /...slide up
r...release bend sd..slide down
h...hammer on ~...vibrato
p...pull off =...hold note
pm..palm mute x...muted note
