Hi,

i've got a simple question concerning "Don't say a word" from Sonata Arctica.
What's the fingering for the first few notes of the guitar solo???
It's kind of critical because you have to play it so fast (naturally, it's metal..).
I've looked around a long time, but all tabs that I found didn't include the fingering of course..
Link to the tab:
http://metaltabs.com/tab/7973/
Any help would be highly appreciated.

I think I'd do

-----------11-13-11-
-14-12-10-----------etc
4 2 1 2 4 2

How fast is it, it feels pretty hard?

Hi, thanks for the quick reply!
This would have been my guess too:
E-----------------------
B--10--12--10-----------
G--------------13--11--9
2 4 2 4 2 1

But i've looked at the video, and i think he does this:
E-----------------------
B--10--12--10-----------
G--------------13--11--9
2 4 2 4 3 1

Small change, but critical because you have to play it so damn fast. Another tab of this I found says the speed is 112. Roughly, it's 120 measures a minute. All tabs say you have to play these 6 notes 6 times in 4 measures (so in 2 seconds), but you don't hear that on the track, he rather plays it 5 times with one or two extra notes at the end of the 4th measure, i'm sure the tabs found are not accurate with this solo. Also with the second set of notes in the solo, the video shows the notes have to be played way lower on the neck.

Well, i'm off practising, thanks for the reply. Feel free to talk more about this tab, i will be reading it. It's a brilliant song after all.
