Paul Franklin's solo on The Bug by Dire Straits
I love the pedal steel guitar solo Paul Franklin plays at the end of the Dire Strait's tune, The Bug (the original studio version). I was wondering if anyone has the tablature for the solo or knows where I can find it. I've checked youtube to see if anyone explains it but haven't found anything yet. I also slowed the speed down on the youtube version but it comes out too distorted to hear each note clearly. Thanks.

Would love to see this tab if anyone has a copy. I've worked most of it out, and always happy to see other approaches and check my mistakes

Awesome solo by Paul starts at 3:15 on that Original track I just posted for those that haven't heard and/or don't know how to hear it.

Yep - that's it. There are some great live recordings as well.

If anyone has decoded one of these to a tab, I'd love to see it
