that’s it… parts of the solo can be played a bit diff but it doesn’t really matter... 
unless ur kirk hammett u’ll probably need to just trill some parts of the solo
i didn’t bother w/ the timing and stuff but it should all be correct... if not, too bad
and corrections, comments, etc... blah blah blah send to
