Another great solo from Brian May of Queen.
 
Edited 30/9/2018. Added second guitar part, and modified timing. Thinks it sounds better now :-)

Pretty Darn GOod, although after the stint down on the 3rd fret, its off. There are two guitars playing in suspension one after another, and the notation is a bit off. But its a REALLY big help.

I've been playing guitar for 27+ years and I've been into Queen longer than that but I never played any of their songs since I don't play keys but a few days ago I learned the solos in Bohemian Rhapsody and I learned SO much that I started looking for those other sick solos from Brian, this is the next one in my mind...what should I try after this one? Any suggs?

Could you add times eg. when that section starts correlating with the song
