Very nice job on the guitar tab!! but, there are just a few mistakes... first off, you can use a regular 7-string guitar or tune your regular 6-string guitar (low to high) B,E,A,D,F#,B. and the guitar solo isnt quite right..move what you got up to the 12th and 14th fret. This song was transcribed in GUITAR mag. *with metallica on the cover* but other than those few mistakes, great job! oh..and you got "Im Diving under" on the pre-chours, its "Im dying again" but thats no biggie! good job. \m/
Umm....hey Jay...u said this is played with 2 guitarists...i disagree. the other part u hear is the bass. they just have alot of distortion on it and since the guitar is tuned low (which makes the bass tuned in the same form)the 2 sounds kinda blend together. but yea that all iahve to say
Ev isnt in standard tuning, that i know for sure... also, to get that low, you use thicker strings... taking a standard 9 gauge set of strings down to anything below Drop D / straight D isnt a good idea... i, myself, use 12 gauge strings ( 12-15-26-34-44-55 ) to get to straight C... to get to B, 13 gauges are used (on baratone guitars, scale 27"/28") with a 25.5" scale, 12's can get down to straight B.
thats how they got so low... another thing... i think Ev does tune to baratone, straight B... not sure, but just assuming due to the fact that this song starts out on a B note.
Comments on this version of the 'Going Under' guitar tab
