Serpents in Solitude - Funeral For A Friend (guitar cover)

[benjiw2012]

whats your email? i'll give you the guitar pro file if you want it?

[FuelledByHamish]

@benjiw2012 I'm three months late and not the uploader, but I'd love a copy of that tab!

[thejuice411]

mad fingers on you, long n shit

[benjiw2012]

this is all wrong, your playing the harmonies wrong and the riffs in the verses, the intro's played incorrectly also, not being cocky but i am right, ive grown up with gav and boosh who wrote this song and they've given me the tab, its all wrong mate.

[TomDavenport1993]

@benjiw2012 i never said it was right man. I learnt it by ear which is quite hard with this type of music, its hard to tell what notes are been played at times. There was a tab i found but it seemed wrong. You can send me the tab if you want?

[Pandemic16]

@benjiw2012 That is a bit harsh...this is a cover of the song, not a perfect display of the song in all it's detail. You can have your opinion and may even have insight into how the song is played given if you know the creators, but this guy only covered the song. I am not having a go here or anything, just defending the mans right to cover a song without being hassled for the apparent flaws in his work.

perfect, well done mate!

[TomDavenport1993]

@23ffaf thanks mate :)

[skatejam7]

wtf happened at 1:54 seriously?

[TomDavenport1993]

@skatejam7 i dont know what you mean? :P

[skatejam7]

@TomDavenport1993 i just meant that you're fast and i can't see what the hell you're fingers are doing xD

[TomDavenport1993]

@skatejam7 oh haha it looks faster than it actually is :P

[spursdude92]

great cover man, I've been trying to learn this for ages. I'm trying to learn the lower guitar for the intro/ middle bridge and the tapping bit for the chorus. It's killer, but honestly man, I'm impressed

[TomDavenport1993]

@spursdude92 thanks man :) the tapping bit for the chorus looks quite hard thats why i didnt do it haha :P

[spursdude92]

@TomDavenport1993 It's surprisingly easy once you get the hang of the timing and as long as you can bend with your right (picking) hand, just takes a lot of practice doing it slowly. I may put up a video of me doing a cover and a how to play at some stage - not for a bit, considering I only just started learning it yesterday ago

[TomDavenport1993]

@spursdude92 aah thats cool :)

[DomWantsYourLove]

So from standard the whole guitar is tuned up half a step then drop tuned?

[TomDavenport1993]

@DomWantsYourLove from standard, tune whole guitar DOWN half a step, then drop tuned :)

[DomWantsYourLove]

@TomDavenport1993 Wouldn't that make it drop c#?

[TomDavenport1993]

@DomWantsYourLove erm i think, the notes are - c# g# c# f# a# d#

[DomWantsYourLove]

@TomDavenport1993 Yeah that's drop c# xD To pronounce a dropped tuning is the note the bottom string is tuned to, for example: Standard: E,A,D,G,B,E. Drop d: D,A,D,G,B,E

[TomDavenport1993]

@DomWantsYourLove yeah i guess so :D

[DomWantsYourLove]

This is Eb right?

[TomDavenport1993]

@DomWantsYourLove drop Eb :)

[mattdcs15CORK]

Dude, you have a fourth finger on your left hand, use it xD You're gonna hurt that ring finger of yours otherwise! Epicly awesome cover! Well done! *RIFF*

[TomDavenport1993]

@mattdcs15CORK aha thanks :) i do use it for some songs but this one didnt need it too much :P

[GreatestSoloEver]

Bad ass.  haha
