Dp=Down pick 
Up=Up pick

Here is my revised version of the tab, picking and stumming, and timing, this time using DMBtabs.com exact version. Hope you can understand it.

I'm probably wrong, but on Listner Supported, I can swear he's playing something a little different right before he slides down to the A chord. I can't make it out, but I think he's hitting a higher note or something.

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": The food court is downstairs. The cookie stand is upstairs. It's not like we're talking quantum physics here.

Nope, but if it sounds good to you when you play it I guess it doesnt really matter, but no, he doesnt.

Well, sometimes he does, I just decided to use Jkanters tab and stay with the system. I add way more notes to Jimi Thing, but it does us no good to have the Official tab one way and me showing it a different way. He sometimes plays the open D after sliding from the 11, I have shows audio and video shows to prove it, but for the sake of simplicity and consistency, we'll forget he ever plucked that D :D
