Notes:
To do the two pre-bends in the solo, place your finger on the 10th fret and bend it up
pitch
BEFORE you pluck it. Pluck the string, then release the bend back to the original pitch.
This requires ear training, and also muscle memory so your fingers don't bend too far or
far enough.
I pulled my hair out getting this technique down, and I'm still not that great at it,
it sounds awesome
when you finally start to nail it. Hope everyone enjoys the tab and isn't confused by
I hope it isn't sloppy.
