Can you tell me how do you get so nice clear bass sound even with distortion? What effect and what AMP are you using? I've been trying to get my stratocaster to sound like that and I can't.
Sorry to nitpick, you're obviously as into REM as I am and I know I like to be accurate as possible. Especially since their sound is so muddy it can be hard to figure out what they're playing.
Nice job, this is one of my all time favorite R.E.M. tunes. That second chord on the chorus always eluded me, I played a G#m for years but it never sounded right. Try this instead: In open position, play the top 4 strings: E flat, A flat, C# and F#. I think you'll find it 'fits' better and you just have to move one finger up the hit the open A chord. Use F# minor and G# minor only, neither one of them are major.

Actually: I have always played it detuned a halfstep. It's much easier that way.

This is in standard tuning.

@ZRN959 Yes. It seems that the original is 1/2 step down, but all live performances have standard tuning...so take your pick.
