Steeler:




I have not at all tried to do an accurate transcribtion - this is
just the basic riffs. I have not transcribed the solopart, but have
included the interlude.

The first notes are played with the "pinky" on the volumen knob and about
500ms delay.
The interludepart should do a great picking exercise. Sweep-pick, that's
how Yngwie plays.

By the way, this is my first tab-post, so don't be too surprised to see
some errors. Comments are welcome...

Tab:
b1	play previous note and bend one fret
r	rebend
'	pull-offs, hammer-ons
/	slide up
\	slide down
~	vibrato
~~	wide vibrato
/\/	vibrato with whammybar
