on a single staff: gtr.2 is downstemmed, gtr.3 is upstemmed.

The end of the song is a bit difficult to explain : listen to the record
and all will become clear!

-Rhy.Fig.1 is repeated until the end of the song
-At the second repetition of Rhy.Fig.1, gtr.2 enters with Harmony 1;
-At the third repetition, gtr.3 enters with Harmony 2
-Each Harmony is repeated until the end of the song
-During the third repetition of Rhy.Fig.1,at the point
 marked by a square () enters a fourth guitar which doubles
 Harmony 1 one octave up;
-At the beginning of the fourth repetition of Rhy.Fig.1,
 enters a fifth guitar which doubles Harmony 2 one octave up!

I think it's all!
