Artist: Stone Sour
Title: Bother
Album: Self-titled

Equipment: Honestly, you could pull it off with any electric into a clean 
amp. In this case a Marshall or Bogner would be preferred over a Fender
to get that "clank" in the top end (but that's just my opinion).  A deep
(non-spring) reverb is also used in the solo.

Legend:  p - pull off
         h - hammer on
         ^ - bend note
         / or \ - slide
         x - mute
