The second time, this solo is played on top of it. Solo 1: For the solos, switch to a distortion sound with a filter effect added on top. Play all off this tremolo picked, listen to the song for timing, it’s not difficult.

After the fast notes, make the pitches clash at first, then resolve into the 10 E|------------------------------0------0----------------| B|------------------10--12--13--10-----10--10--10/0-----| G|--10------10--12------------------0-------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------| Full bends here, hit the open notes right before you come back down. The point is to get a clashing sound. On the last one, come down slowly and hold the 10 for a while before sliding to the 8.
