sounds pretty perfect, haha.

ok, i only have an electric, but when you go into the faster part after the power chords, is it 9h11(a),9 (d string) or do you have to hit them as a chord? because i dunno if thats just how it sounds with reverb.

Here's the deal:

1) STUDIO VERSION:

The guitar on the recorded version is a LOT more complex than what I'm playing. I'm doing a sort of simplified, hybrid version of it.

LIVE VERSION:

Steve does a very stripped down version of the studio track, but he plays it double time:

-------------9-------------9-- --- D

--9-H11-------9-H11--------- A

------------------------------ ----- E

If you want the tab for how exactly how I'm playing it, send me a message and I'll tab it out for you!

Stop sliding after every note.

[beavis408]

No, he does slide the B pwr chord down on 1st beat of the measure. The part I played incorrectly was picking the B chrd on the 1st and 2nd quarter note, instead of just the 1st and letting it ring out on the slide down.

yeah you nailed it, way to go, post the rest!
