Who has a good ear?

I'm looking to learn how to play this solo. It's not long, but it's the tracking of 2 basses that makes it hard for me. The solo starts at the 1:54 mark, but the part I'm having trouble with starts at 2:04 and goes to the solo ends at 2:18. Please help me. I really would like to bring this nightmare to an end.

Here it is. The tablature staff reflects my sole opinion on the best fingerboard positions to play the notes, so feel free to try others you might find more comfortable. Also, the last two C# notes (at the very end) actually sound as written (not an octave higher), but a 5-string bass is needed to play that last double stop that way and the lowest C# that links the end of the solo with the following accompaniment line. I preferred to keep everything within the 4-string bass possibilities.



Hope this helps. Beautiful solo, BTW.
