I don't hear the drop down from the ---4 to the ---2
---6 ---4

When I get the the ---4 I then just play....
---6

------------------x
------------------x
------------------x
--------5------7-x Then just start over
-----2------4----x
---3-----/5------x

Now I have no clue if thats anywhere near right, I'm not saying either way. But to me and my own personal preference thats what I hear.
Awesome work though... sounds really good.

oh, it's very quiet at points. Sometimes you can't hear it all, but it's there. I debated on that over and over again, and after cranking the volume, and fiddling with an equalizer, it is there.

It was late when I posted that last night.. I was very tired. Couldn't try to play it then, and had to keep the volume down. Tried to play it a little tonight, and this tab is awesome. you kick ass man.

I am not too big on baritones. I prefer just a nice 6 string. 7 strings are kewl smetimes, but I have always wanted to lay my hands on a harp guitar. those things look so complicated.

I think this is known, but if not I thought I would post... saw DM and F and Dave plays it on his Baritone which makes sense since you hear some low B's while he is sliding up and down... anyway, it was very cool to watch him play it on low B tuning...

Sorry if this has been discussed...

It's already known that it is played on a baritone, thanks for letting us know though, seriously :)
