Subject: TAB: Blackened by Metallica
Blackened by Metallica
Transcription by Jeff Davis (4th revision)
Notation:
. - palm mute
h - hammer on
p - pull off
! - I used these to glue the dots to the page. Huh? (just ignore them).
s/ - slide up these are used for normal
s and ghost slides
\ - slide down
In general I tried to keep one dash '-' equal to a thirty-second note.
Thus,
|-0---0---0---0--- are eight notes and
|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0- are sixteenth notes.
E||-- -||
B||-- -||
G||*- These mark the beginning and the *||
D||*- end of a section to be repeated. *||
A||-- -||
E||-- _||
--------|--------
--------|--------
--------|-3------
--------|-1------
---1---^|(1)----- <--- this means the 1 should ring out in to the
--------|-------- next measure while the 1 and 3 are played
My transcription strictly notates the rhythm guitar for this song.
The intro and solo are tabbed below my transcription.
They were tabbed below by Matt Holliman [email protected]) and
Vassilis Tzerpos ([email protected]) respectively.
(addendum: In my second revision I tabbed my own version of
the harmonies in the beginning of the solo.
