    Solo: Requires a single slap-back delay of ~200-300 ms. My timing isn't
    good enough to get it sounding right, or indeed work out exactly
  • what is being played. What's below is a rough idea of what I think
    is going on. To confuse matters even further it sounds as though
    there are regular pull-offs onto the open G. Knowing what John
  • Petrucci is capable of, he probably didn't even use a delay !
