e-----  /  e------    There is so much distortion right here that I can't even tell
B-----  /  B------    whether "Gtr. 1" or "Gtr. 2" should be played. Either "Gtr. 1"
G--4--  /  G--14--    is played with distortion to the max, or Gtr. 2 is played with
D--4--  /  D--14--    not as much distortion, but still a lot. Either way, "Gtr. 1" 
A--2--  /  A--12--    and "Gtr. 2" are octaves, so it really sounds fine no matter
E-----  /  E------    which way you play it.
