You should be able to work out the backing for the verses, and there's no

way I'm typing the solos in! As for effects... well, Slash has distortion

(Marshall Jubilee stack), delay (added at the console) and Wah for the final

solo (Crybaby). I think Izzy just has distortion. Oh yeah, they probably

have a bit of chorus for the backing behind the verses. If people really want

I can type in the backing but I'd have to look it up at home.

This solo took me about 28 hours in all to tab, and hopefully now I have

got the tab note perfect or at least very close to it. Seeing as I spent

this much time tabbing this solo it would be nice to hear what people

think of it so that the next tab I do may be better or more understandable.

Mail me on 106051.3350@compuserve.com.If you feel brave enough to attempt this tab

then good luck to you! Go for it!!!
