this is tab is a perfect tab for the
recorded version of the Hey Joe Solo you can learn it perfectly or use the ideas and techniques to improvise how you want.
about the confusion on the 3rd row down just play the wrongly placed bit on the D string after the hole row. sorry but nothing can be done because on my tab modifier it reads fine.
thank you please rate.
