of course the picking on this may be different, but with the pull offs/hammer ons not much picking is usually required,
especially with a good amount of distortion.

Riff B :
(This riff seems to be inspired by Ozzy Osbourne's powerful "Crazy Train",
but as I play Buckethead's song more and more, I don't think anymore about
Ozzy or Randy Rhoads during this section...)

then the sections are going in this order:
Riff C
Riff A
Riff B
Riff D
-Solo-
the Solo (find Buckethead's one or play your own):
the Chords under the solo are the ones from Riff D, then it goes like:
G#5 F#5 E5 F#5 (4x) G#5
e-|---------|---------|---------|---------||---------
B-|---------|---------|---------|---------||---------
G-|*--------|---------|---------|--------*||--------- Drum continues...
D-|*--6-----|---4-----|---2-----|---4----*||---6-----
A-|---6-----|---4-----|---2-----|---4-----||---6-----
E-|---4-----|---2-----|---0-----|---2-----||---4-----
here is a way you can play the Riff D by adding some notes in the melody to link with the supporting chord...
note this: you could also add the 3rd on the 12th fret instead of the 5th,
at the beginning of the last bar (with the G chord)
(5th added) (13th added) (G added) (5th added) (3rd added) (9th added)
