[QUOTE="linkinpark_lk, post: 3871654, member: 8291"] Guns N Roses - Knocking On Heavens Doors tab Send "Knocking On Heavens Doors" Ringtone to your Cell Phone I include my rendition of Slash's first solo in this transcription. I think it's fairly accurate. I play a variation of the first solo because people recognize it, but the second solo I improvise; and I don't feel like figuring it out since Slash always plays something different in concert anyway. Key: H - hammer-on / - slide P - pull-off ^ - half bend ^^ - full bend ~ - vibrato (ACK! Did we decide on a standard somewhere for ASCII tab notation. Could someone send me a copy of the article since I apparently missed it.) This is the picking at the very beginning of the song. The picking varies throughout, and you should do whatever feels best instead of trying to restrict yourself to how it sounds on record. GN'R is constantly mutating this song in concert anyway (even doing it with a reggae beat).

Again, the picking will vary throughout the song.
