Good pull! Killer solo on that one. Melodic and technical at the same time. This is a great example of how to learn a solo using your ear. IMHO this is simply the most beneficial method of going about it. It provides ear training in the context of actual music with something to compare it to. Of course, you can always look at the tablature if you hit a bump or something, but listening and then using your ear to replicate the notes will pay great dividends in terms of your training your ear. I'd suggest that anyone who wants to play guitar use this method to learn rythm and lead bits from songs that they like. It provides motivation and training at the same time. Nicely done
