just to let you know the intro is not an affect and the guitar,its serj on the keyboard,you want to know how i know,because i saw them live in the 9:30 club on 6-10-05,and i was front row
otrebor06otrebor06 Unknown Date
930 club, nice, i was gonna go to that


anyways, if youre playing it and dont have a keyboard,use a flange-type effect and just hammer 5 on low Db, and use whammy bar down to about 1. and also if you slide the


-0-5-7-5-8-5-7


when it is clean w/ flange, it sounds





great tab btw
