answer yes i can play said solo .
but there are more technical solo’s by metallica .
if you want to learn it use guitar pro 5 and export the file to mp3 listen to the song slow the tempo down on GP5 and play it in segments as with any solo/riff

i dont like tabs and have had a bad experience with them, i looked a song up and half the notes were wrong.

the majority of powertab tablature out there is copied straight from a book or taken from a GP5 tablature and made for powertab.
but then again even tablature (official) books have things wrong or not how you would play it and indeed not in the right position the artist would play it.
when i used powertab i never found any songs that came the wrong way and were tabbed pretty accurate i just played it how i thought it sounded if there was a bit tabbed out different to what i knew .

@sandystrachan what website do you use for tabs?

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/
i filter using GP or powertab if i cant find GP tabs

laxrrockr18's avatar

thats what i use. ill try it, but it is going to take me a while because im slow at tabs

sandystrachan's avatar

with GP and powertab you will be able to read tabs better and can work the songs out better because you will have the audio aswell as tabs
