hey, this is pretty good! thanks. have a question though. i've got most of the tabs down, but how do you get the high tones in right after the bass ? do you also tune down one and a half step the highest three snares? can't get those tones. :) thanks in advance
@Mandourage I think you mean the natural harmonics. If you put your finger on the 5th, 7th or 12th fret and gently touch (do not press down!) the string, you will hear a harmonic when you strike the string. Try it ;-)
it's a very nice guitar, that in my opinion really shines on open tunings. right now i have it tuned to DADADE. you'll be hard pressed to find a better sounding guitar for under $1000.
yes, i did. it's really not that hard. i don't know which tuning she uses for the song, so i just used standard tuning, dropped down. the harmonics and such are gonna sound differently, but that's not really a big deal :-)

bravo. yours is the first "swim" cover i've seen that plays the actual riff. all the others i've seen cheap-out by strumming the chords only.
