much credit for it

Nice! Kick ass tab is epically awesome. Thanks fer the help. Nice that it's tabbed in standard.

Kcik ass Tab! works good with the normal tuning. but there is one part thats a bit off by a little. but all-in-all its a kick-ass tab. shrweet-ness!

Thanks for doing this, I alway find it hard trying to think of a tab in a different tuning to what its written in (mainly for the solo), takes a lot of strain from my brain :P nice job.
