This is a great new song from Zakk.  Definitely one of his best.  I'm not 100% sure 
the solo because Zakk is a bit...um, crazy.  But awesome, nonetheless, so here goes.  
two guitars in the song.  One, obviously, is electric.  The other is an acoustic 12-string.

GUITAR SOLO (Zakk, distortion w/ wah pedal)  As I said before, I'm not 100% sure here, 
on the really fast part, but it sounds okay with the wah pedal.

Enjoy.  Sorry about the solo if it's wrong.  Other than that, I'm pretty sure the whole 
is 100% accurate.
