------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE FLY - U2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:Ryan Noormohamed Email:rnoormohamed@sbcglobal.net Sup guys Im Ryan Noormohamed and im 15 years old, this is my first tab. It drove me crazy that I couldnt find a good tab for this solo, so i figured it all out myself. Its a great song and a great guitar solo so enjoy. Effects-wise, I use medium-heavy distortion, a phaser, some reverb(arena), and a Dunlop Wah-Wah pedal. Listen to the song to figure all of this out timing-wise, but anyways heres the solo.
