Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Such a great song. Updating this tab to include the beginning picking part. One
guitarist is playing an
electric with the bass turned way up and some reverb. Another guitarist is playing a
slide guitar.
I'll update this tab with the slide guitar part if I can figure it out with a friend's help.
As always, let me know in the comments if you find any errors.
[Fun fact] If you play D like this, you'll preserve those cool dissonant bass
string tones. There's also two ways to play A for their base notes.
