GRAVE - WORTH THE WAIT
(1996 - HATING LIFE)
Version 1.0 - May 2001
This song is performed on a 6-string guitar tuned down to B
(B, E, A, D, G, B) - the guitar sound is very harsh, with
absolutely no mids. There are 2 guitars which sometimes
needed to be transcribed separately.
This time I didn't give you the exact timing but it's easy
to figure out when you listen to the record.
I didn't tab the solo. I think you can just improvise in
G minor (pentatonic).
If you have any corrections or anything to say feel free to
