Halt - Joi - Solo

My favorite part of this solo are the two bends right before the sweeps--I play both with a rake and include a thick-thumb on the second, sometimes getting a sweet pinch harmonic with it. I try not to employ sweeps egregiously (you here the natural minor sweep so often it feels generic) but I felt it fit well here, building the tension with the diminished sweeps and then unwinding with the diminished descending run.
