Muse – hysteria
This is as close as I got to perfect, I have the guitar instrumental of
this song, and Im pretty sure that this is as good as it gets, hope you
agree. I am aware about the first part of the solo is just like many other
tabs, thatÂ’s because its right, simple as.

FULL Solo - first section was easy to tab, but after that, wasnt so easy
(the main reason I made this was to tab out the full solo which the others
dont have, and various other mistakes in the other tablatures)
Section 1 -

You can hear this very faintly, and hard to make out, between end of section 2 and
of section 3
e|-------------------|B|-11h13h14h15p13p10-|G|-------------------|D|-------------------|A|-------------------|E|-------------------|
Section 3 - this plays when the chorus plays (including when matt sings and
plays the chords) so you must listen carefully for this part
