Notes: OK, this is my new improved version of my old "Mantronic" guitar tab.
It's much better and I've also transcribed the main solo this time,
it's far from perfect on 2 sections of it but this is solo is really
hard to transcribe. The last solo during the fade out part I couldn't
transcribe it, but it's mostly made of dive effects with Artificial
Harmonics on E and D notes with bendings also. Enjoy!

7p5 - Pull-Off.
10b - bend the specified interval.
10br - bend and release in the specified interval.
5v - Vibrato.
