Help with playing an Eric Johnson solo

Hiya, these days I wanna put up a challenge for myself. I want to see if I can play Eric Johnson - Austin.

I’m comfortable playing DSX lines at reasonaly high tempo’s (125-130 bpm for complete songs, 145-150 bpm for just shorter bursts in an exercise). Most of the phrases in the solo seem doable with some re-arranging (I’m not a USX player after all), but this particular 1-nps phrase with the string skip is tough.

Any advice in how to approach it? Re-write it somehow so it’s easier for my technique? Use string hopping and hope it will be fast enough? The song isn’t super high paced (around 115 bpm i think).

It’s at 1:23 https://youtu.be/8C16agJN9R4 and also see provided tab :slight_smile:
