[yourmum73]

Good but wrong

[LPRULLZ]

It sounds pretty good, but these aren't the original tabs, (you never said they were anw) at least @ muse wiki

[Ultrasahand]

thanks man , thanks thanks thanks

[Greesovith]

how about the outtro? 

[Museician12]

awesome i think matt plays it with an octave down and maybe a little plus 1 oct? and a bit of delay? i tired my best to get the same effect.. wanna check out my cover of mk ultra?

[r1c0ch3t211]

Really good video. I try and play it on bass sometimes, have real difficulty with the penultimate bar though (maybe I'm just shit)

[ladiesman09876]

[humonoid1242]

This is AWESOME

[maiLO9O]

Thanks! i was stuck on a bit, I uploaded a video of me playing it if you want to check it out, gave your vid a mention :)

[jaydenkorhonen]

dam im trying to learn this but i can get the strumming right good job

[BigBiiii]

As many of you noticed, he actually plays the riff an octave up with the effect down, but like everyone who posted a MK ultra video on you tube before the album was released, i was quite confident back then that he played it with the octave down and the effect up. I could only saw the right position like the rest of you with the DVD making of, the day the album was released. And i decided that ill keep this video anyway... but ill probably post a tutorial with the right position this week end

[bigheadudz]

:-)

[farizzal]

wait so you're saying he plays an octave higher with an effect that brings him down an octave?

thats a little pointless isnt it though lol

[Rokkec]

The same as if he`d play it an octave down and had the effect an octave up..he still needs that octave..he probably prefers to play it on the higher frets=)

[KingAdrock909]

great job

i wanna learn this but it seems difficult

and i already have the whammy to set it an octave +1

[FZforzaking]

Thanks alot, sounds great

[farizzal]

the notes are right but I think its played an octave higher

[ShaunDobbie1andonly]

plus, you've got to account for the way matt bellamy tunes his guitar

[farizzal]

yea but the tuning for this song is drop d, nothing fancy.

[timkagol]

Good job, man! Thanks a lot!

[Flash447]

thank youuu very much...it took me 10 minits to learn this in normal speed:))

[Dekkz0r]

Awesome, I was already busy figuring this out last night. This will make it a lot easier.

[bigheadudz]

all you guys going oh its an octave higher!!! yer well you would therefore now that it sounds the same and how many of you can play it!?!?!?!

[MuseareAmazing]

i can thanks. and i can play it an octave higher.

[bigheadudz]

what do you want a medal?!?!

[farizzal]

i CAN play it for the record, an octave higher, but even if i couldnt why do i need to play it to criticize someone about it?

he put up the vid to get feedback, and im giving it to him. I hate when ppl like you think you cant criticize anyone on how they play guitar unless you are a guitar master yourself.

[bigheadudz]

theres a difference between criticism and constructive criticism and i am pretty sure most peoples criticism on skills and hobbies tend to be the 2nd of the 2!

[farizzal]

well i am giving him constructive criticism, I am telling him to play an octave higher so he doesnt go around playing it wrong, otherwise if i wanted him o look like an idiot i wouldnt say anything would I?

[bigheadudz]

Well done on the first part of your sentence, have a cookie! /the second part how ever im sure you would say something no matter what feelings you had for him :-)

[farizzal]

lol

well you can think what you want to think

[indyjones328]

I wish I could play guitar..I asked my parents if I could get lessons! We'll see! =)

[MuseareAmazing]

i believe matt plays it an octave up from that

from what i've seen on the making of videos

[yourfatmuma1990]

listen to the actual song, it is you wanker

[mofemobile]

he uses octavea/harmony effect thing...

[yourfatmuma1990]

no he doesnt, watch him play it on the making of video, he plays it in a different place, i figured it out how he actually plays it

[gazdog88]

hahahahahaha funny

[mandarawessels]

Tabs please =P

[BigBiiii]

I added them in the description. Enjoy

[shazd2k7]

Nice work on this! Its extremely helpful and this is one of the best Muse riffs in my opinion

[Luknopfler83]

Nice tutorial!

[TheiMark3000Show]

it sounds very good. thanks for the tutorial vid! it would have taken me weeks to try to figure it out by ear!
