yea man, it is called "Eugene's Trick Bag" by steve vai. It involves some intermediate to difficult, fast picking and fingering movements. it is not as easy as it looks for ralph in the movie. by the way, do not try to play it with the fender tele, like in the movie. u will not get the drive out of the pickups, the neck is not for that kind of playing, and since the last note in the solo is on the 24th fret and bent up 2 1/2 steps the 22 fret tele neck would make it almost a impossible to pull off clean. u might pull it off on a tele by fretting it on the neck pickup but why not make it easy and do it on a shred guitar. even on the perfect guitar and amp the last note is impossible to pull off by yourself because it is 4 guitars overdubed, i guess ralph got help from god or something!!
