Artist: Guns N' Roses
Song: Locomotive
Album: Use your illusion II

h - hammer on
p - pull off
b - bend string up
r - release bend
/ - slide up
\ - slide down
~ - vibrato
t - tap (with strumming hand)
x - muted, struck string

This is the 5 solos song from Use your Illusion II and one of the fastest 
song Slash played in the Guns N' Roses era. I transcribed it as a normal 
tuning but it should be played flat (half-tone down), as in every Guns song. 
There may be mistakes in repetitive rhythms and I didn't detail the song too 
much since it is pretty straightforward. The solos are correct though, 
except possibly the outro. It's pretty complicated but it is very possible 
to make it sound almost identical, even if the tab isn't perfect. I 
transcribed a part of the outro but it's much more fun to finish the song 
improvising really. Hope you have a good time. If you have any comment or 
suggestion, I'd be willing to modify the song if there are mistakes.
