picking in the third section isnt completely accurate, but notes are.

solo is played with heavy distortion and(with my guitar)using the neck humbucker with the tone control 
most or all of the way down. 
a vibrato sounds like it is used on a very fast setting...and it sounds as if a slow vibrato 
and some sort of chorus is used for the intro/verse.

the solo at the end is just about the same as the third section of this solo.
