The solo starts at the very end of the riff shown above, so I it's already timed 

and lined up (listen to the song, preferably the studio versoion off Back 
in Black 
or Who Made Who to find out what I'm rambling about)

By the way, for future referance "B" means bend, "W" means Pre-bend (Do a bend 
before you play the note, and bend back as it rings; just a little tip, it took 

me awhile to figure out what the hell that was), The ~ sign means vibrato, and 
">" means slide (some of these are probably done with hammer-ons, but I prefer 
slides, myself)
