Track : Tremonti - Radical Change
Album : Cauterize (2015)
Tuning : C# Standard (C# F# B E G# C#) 1,5 steps down from E.
Tabbed by Amerijckbeheerder
Notes:
Since the album came out I noticed people covering this song in Drop C#.
Although this is possible (and I did it as well before I knew it was the wrong tuning)
It's just not the "official" way of playing the song. After studying live performances
I decided to give it a shot and tab out the way mark and eric play the song.
It might not be a 100% correct, this is one of my first tabs.
