@MissMisstreater Hi Levi, I assume you refer to Shaun Baxter? Yes I bought it off him in '94 I think. Yngwie himself played it once too during a GT lesson/interview. I am of course not worthy of such lineage, which is why I'll be putting it up for sale very soon.

I'm referring to the actual full song Insomnia (which I'm sure you figured out) ;) my bad

Would it be possible to put up a video of you playing the first part of the solo (2:57-3:39). I really want to see what you are doing in that Petrucci-esque part from 3:23-3:27.

Lovin' Haken man!!

Not just any old Strat though - I believe thats the true master's strat!

Great solo. Cool to hear it broken down (even better with an Empire t-shirt on \m/). :)
