None of them
Ok, this is from the movie "Crossroads". In wich Steve Vai played. This part was
actually recorded by Steve Vai. If you watch the movie closely, you can see that the guy who's
playing this part is just playing it slowly but they sped it up. Anyways, it's the duel between
Jack Butler and Eugene, after Jack Butler though he won, Eugene counter-plays a terrific part,
which is tabbed below. It's pretty hard, but, good luck!

Ok, this part is tricky. First of all, the 24's are to be bended a little more each time.
Then, the 29, you can't play this on most necks.
you gotta play it by fretting the string against the bridge position pick-up
on a Telecaster guitar, or a guitar like it.
