How To Play The Devil Went Down to Georgia on Real Guitar

NEW, BETTER VIDEO IS UP FOR THE INTRO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCcPrMdFHZQ

The tab is now up at http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/s/steve_ouimette/devil_went_down_to_georg...

Enjoy.
========================================

NOTE: Since posting this video, I have been contacted by Steve Ouimette, and we have begun discussing his playing method. With this new information, I plan to develop a series of much more professional videos on how to play this song exactly the way Ouimette does. ***You can look forward to the new and improved intro section video within the next couple days, which will include how to play BOTH lead guitars as well as the rhythm guitar exactly like Steve does.***

Original description:
This is an instructional video on how to play the main parts of Steve Ouimette's version of The Devil Went Down to Georgia, which appears on Guitar Hero 3, on real guitar.

These tabs represent my interpretation from listening to the song, and are not official.

The guitars are tuned to Drop D.

Intro Riff

E:-------------------------15-17-17-18-17-15----|
B:15----15-17-18-18--------------------------18-|
G:---17----------------------------------|
D:---------------------------------------|
A:---------------------------------------|
D:---------------------------------------|

E:-----------------------------------17----------------|
B:-------------------17-17-18-20----20-18-17-------|
G:17-16-17-19-----------------------------------19-17-|
D:------------------------------------------|
A:------------------------------------------|
D:------------------------------------------|

E:10-12-10----8-10-8---6-8-6---5-6-5--3-5-3---1-3-1-----------|
B:-------------10----------8--------8---------6--------5---------1-3-*-----|
G:------------------------------------------------------------|
D:------------------------------------------------------------|
A:------------------------------------------------------------|
D:------------------------------------------------------------|

(There are two other guitars in the intro, one doing a higher version of the fast riff, and another doing power chords, but I'm not going to make it that easy :P)

Verse:

Just palm mute 0 on the low E (tuned to D) string for the first part

The hammer on riff for the lower guitar goes like this:

E:----------------------------------------|
B:----------------------------------------|
G:----------------------------------------|
D:----------------------------------------|
A:----------------------------------------|
D:10-h12-0-0-0-0-10-h12-0-0-0-0-10-h12-0-0|

E:----------------------------------------|
B:----------------------------------------|
G:----------------------------------------|
D:----------------------------------------|
A:----------------------------------------|
D:10-h12-0-0-0-0-13-p12-0-0-0-0-10-h12-0-0|

Watch the video for the rest.
