Bass Tab

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Tuned down 1/2-step

Comments: The x's in Rhy. Figs 2 and 3 are fingered at the third fret. Gene

plays these but screws them up here and there so I've chosen this way to

notate it. Previously tabbed by Luis Fernando. No part of his tab has been

used in this one.

Key:

/ = slide up

\ = slide down

b = bend (whole step)

b^ = bend (1/2 step)

b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)

pb = pre-bend

r = release-bend

t = tap with righthand finger

h = hammer-on

p = pull-off

~ = Vibrato

* = Natural Harmonic

#(#) = Trill

** = Artificial Harmonic

x = Dead notes (no pitch)

P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)

(\) = Dive w\bar

(/) = Release w\bar

Tp = Tap w\plectrum
