Standard tuning
Comments: Actually it seems to be a little below standard tuning. I suggest
tuning to the song. This is based mostly on swing eights so all you have to
do is lock into the groove and swing away. Gene does have a few variations
here and there. For the life of me I can't understand where Rhy. Fig 7
comes from, it seems totally out of place in this tune (hell, on this album).
Key:
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
b = bend (whole step)
b^ = bend (1/2 step)
b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb = pre-bend
r = release-bend
t = tap with righthand finger
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
~ = Vibrato
* = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
** = Artificial Harmonic
x = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\) = Dive w\bar
(/) = Release w\bar
Tp = Tap w\plectrum
