for the solo, try to use lots of triplets
and just do something like this:
e|-/12-12---12-12----12-12-----12-12-----12-12-----12-12----12-12----12-12-|
B|-/12---12-------12-------12---------12--------12-------12-------12-------|

G|-14b16-------14b16-------14b16-------14b16-------14b16-------14b16-------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
and just improvise the rest in the pentatonic scale
which is:
e|--------------------------------------12-15----------|
B|-------------------------------12-15-----------------|
G|------------------------12-14------------------------|
D|-----------------12-14-------------------------------|
A|----------12-14--------------------------------------|
