I play it with slightly extra bass, a fair bit of reverb & a fair bit of distortion. I put my strat---copy onto the bass pickup & got a pretty good immitation of the recording. I found that by getting this riff going well you can really get "stoned" on it!!! PS --- I'm combining both guitar parts --- it's not too hard to play them both together (I pluch with my fingets rather than with a pick). To make it easier to learn the synchopation, I'm including timings as follows: Above the tab staff - refers to the two top notes. Below the tab staff - refers to the (one) bass note. NB there is a crotchet rest in the bass line at the start. 0.5 = quaver 1.0 = crotchet 1.5 = dotted crotchet 2.0 = minum 2.5 = minum+quaver 3.0 = minnum+crotchet = dotted minum etc 0.5 1.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 1.0 2.5 E---------------0---------------|-------------------------------| B---1---3-------1-------3-------|---1---0-----------------------| G---2---2---------------2-------|---2---0-------2---------------| D-------------------------------|---------------2---------------| A-----------0---0---0---0---0---|---0-------0-------0---0-------| F-----------------------------------------------------------0---| REST 1.0 0.5 0.5 1.0 0.5 0.5 1.0 1.0 1.0 0.5 0.5 0.5 1.0 1.5 0.5 /0.5+0.5\ 3.5 E-------------------------------|----------------------| B--------0-------1-------0---0^^|^^0-------------------| G----2---0-------2-------0---0^^|^^0---2---------------| D----3--------------------------|------3---------------| A-------------------------------|----------------------| F----0-------0---0---0---0---0--|--0-------0---0---0---| 1.0 0.5 0.5 1.0 0.5 0.5 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 After this, the verse starts. The first two of every four bars in the verse is the same as above, but just hold the: E----- B----- G--2-- D--3-- A----- F--0-- chord for the second two bars during the verse (although there are improvisations in these bars sometimes). Stay tuned for a more complete version one day..... Peter Hawkins
