Here two electric guitar appear to play this insane climax with tons of vibrato.
This is noted in standard tuning, without capo.
One plays the upper note; one plays the lower note. You could play both at once.

After 4 rounds, both guitars whammy one octave up and continue the part.
You could emulate this by playing the same thing up at the 20th/18th fret.
They guitars whammy back down and back up again, break away and return to this
loony part. These varations are always improvised, so you ought to do the same.
The whole climax lasts for 12 rounds and ends by resting on the Ab chords.
