Ok this is perfect, but there are several places where there are easier ways to play it, such as during 1:12 to 1:16 on guitar 2, it is easier to play on the d string 9 11 12 then on the G string 9 11 12 again, same exact notes, easier to play and feels much more fluid. I could point out a few more if you are willing to listen, message me, JestyrGod on here.
