Legend

``` = vibrato
15^(16) = bend up
15(16 ^16) = bend up, hit additional note while bending
/14 = slide up


This is my first solo I've submitted to this and so I'm still a little new at this. These are basic blues rock primer riffs as most of AC/DC's stuff is so it's pretty straight forward. Getting the sound on the other hand may be a little more difficult. The real key to nailing this though is in the attack. There is a reason Angus jerks his body like that when he plays. He's putting his whole body weight into the attack. Think of it like opening a door with hand gently or pyle driving it open with your whole body. If you can get that down you obviously shouldn't be reading this and are already well on your way. If you like this interpretation or have any comments or suggestions drop me a line at koobie78@hotmail.com.
