[ECD] Version: Album version Sony/Columbia; ASIN: B000002BUY ------------------------------------- Transcribed by: Robert Seder [[email protected]] This is played with a single 6-string electric guitar with standard (EADGBE) tuning. I believe this is accurate except for 2 passages at the end of verses where there are 2 little riffs. Perhaps someone else can tab them. This tablature is my own work, it may be distributed freely. Guitar Setup: Use the neck pickups to get a warm a sound as you can. Then put it through some type of tube overdrive. On a Line6 "Pod" - I used "Tube Preamp" - then set "Drive" to about 70% and added the compressor. Playing: The little riff at the end of Phrase I uses a traditional jazz guitar playing technique. To play this phrase, use your index and pinky (or index and ring) fingers to play the octave notes. Use your index finger to muffle the string in between. For example: to play an octave of "D" (10th fret - high E and 7th fret G string). Put your index on the 7th fret (G string) let your index finger lay on top of the B string and put your ring or pinky on the 10th fret and STRUM the G, B and E strings. You should only hear the 2 fretted notes - and the B string should be muffled out. This is a good technique to learn in general - it's used a lot in modern jazz. The rest of it should be self-explanatory.
