Killer of Giants
The Ultimate Sin(1986)
Ozzy Osbourne
Guitar: Jake E. Lee
I wanted to submit this tab for ultimately only two measures of the solo. I have seen
far too many Tabs for this song that do the rest of the song wonderfully but can't get two
parts of the solo correct. I admit I have spent a long time trying to figure it out
myself, and after watching the version off of The Ultimate Ozzy show far too many times I
finally noticed that it was right there in front of me the whole time.
Solo

This is what we all got wrong in measure 3. Jake strums the open E and lower "octave
slides" with his index and taps the upper ones with his index and ring. if you watch the
live version on The Ultimate Ozzy this is seen clearly.

Again in measure 7. Jake uses the same technique.
