I just thought I'd add the intro to 'Tornado Of Souls' by Megadeth

E -------------------------------------------------
B -------------------------------------------------
G -------------------------------------------------
D ----------------------------------------------
A -9---------------------------------------9-9--
E -7------------------7-7--

(Means natural harmonic played at the x'th fret...)

Well.. That's about it...

Transcription of intro riff to 'Tornado of Souls'
from Megadeth's Album 'Rust in peace'

As a great Marty Friedman Fan ('Scenes' is unbelievably melodic!) I
finally bought the two Megadeth Album's. Despite the really bad vocals
on some of the tracks of RIP (CDTE is far better), there are really some
great guitar lines on these albums bu both Marty and Mustaine.
I especially loved this one:

E--------------------------------------
H--------------------------------------
G-----------------------------------7--
D--------------------------7---9-7-----
A------------7-8-7-5-7-8-9---9---------
E---7-7-9-10--------------------------- and so on
