Thou Shalt Not tab by Kiss

Guitar tabs

Tuned down 1/2-step

Comments: Much like on Spit I?ve decided to not notate a part here. During
these parts the guitars are just playing a B5 chord in different syncopations.
So, where it says "See comments" play B5 until it feels good. And, all G?s
Played on the 6th string have a slight bend to them. I like this solo, some
cool b5?s, some fast pentatonic riffing, a quote from the classical somposer Grieg,
and a few trills to finish things off. Not your standard Bruce Kulick
solo.


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
🎸
