I left some stuff away like vibratos and palm-mutes
because there was enough work already. and time
signatures are far too complex for me. I couldn't tab
some solos but here is at least some parts.

This is a great solo. It is played with two guitars but 2nd
guitar plays only few parts differently.

  1st guitar
