Tabbed By Chris Phoebe - chris_phoebe@email.msn.com Tune your axe down a half step, then tune your top string down an aditional whole step (to C Flat). The basic verse riff is just an open strum of the top three strings that is muted right after they are strummed: ---0--0-0x-----0--0-0x------ ---0--0-0x-----0--0-0x------ ---0--0-0x-----0--0-0x------ The pre-chorus isn't to tricky either. This sounds very cool if you play it right. I'll give you the basic outline of it: *let ring ----0*-------3*---------------------------- ----0*-------3*---------------------------- -4--4*------------------------------------- -4----------------------------------------- -2--------0------------0--0-0-------0---0-0 ----------5------------0--0-0-------0---0-0 The verse is easy as pie. You really only need to hit each of these notes one, but you can add some flavor if you want. ---------------------------2------- ---------------------------3------- ---------------------------2------- -----9----------5----------0------- -----9----------5----------0------- -----9----------5----------0------- That about does it. The solo isn't too hard, to play, but getting the wah pedal to sound right is very key to pulling off this solo. Ross reminds me of the Edge from U2. He uses simple riffs, but just makes them drip with personality. He is a truly amazing guitarist. Now, if you want to attempt the solo, I would suggest you use a Dunlop 535Q wah pedal. I have met Ross and I probed him about his gear, he revealed that he uses a 535Q wah. The cool thing about this particular pedal is the Q-switch which allows you to adjust the tone and color of your wah. I don't have one, but I've played with one, and they are damn cool. You can get any sound from Alice In Chains to Jimmy Hendrix. Anyway, If you want more help constructing the solo, I'll help you. Cheers, Chris
