you know its strange, i have been able to play most of Tool's songs pretty damn well (not trying to brag) but this is the one i have always seemed to struggle on (probably because of the tuning) but you nailed it right on the head and now i see how to play it! thanks, this video really helped.
Jones also uses a Natural finish Les Paul, for "Prison Sex" and "Parabol/Parabola", which are in BADGBE and BEDGBE..true bout that..u must try it out to see if you can perfect it...Stills sounds perfect in the silverburst..keep it up man nice musik
On the verse after the first four time, u might want to do 5th fret on B and and 7th fret on A instead of doing a tremolo thingy.5th on B is the same so as 7th on A so it just gives it more power. But i could be wrong. (1:15-1:22).
Cool version man, it's the best version I've seen (and heard) so far.
When I play Prison sex, I like to play it on an Ibanez RG(I-dunno-what-else-goes-here) that has a floydRose type bridge for the Intro part (that, and a delay pedal)---It's my favorite part to play lol
Has alot to do with choking up on the pick and hitting the flesh of your thumb and the pick against the string at the same time. Im not good at it... but Opiate damn sure is! Awesome video! 5 stars!
So great!
