SPIT (from the KISS CD "REVENGE")
--------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com
Tuned down 1/2-step
Comments: These are a couple of great riffs. I have taken the liberty to
notate the chorus riff (Rhythm fig. 4) with different endings instead
of tabbing a number of different versions of it. I clearly specify which
ending goes where. The backing under Solo 1 is just syncopated E5-chords.
Since this kind of tab doesn¥t support rythmic notation I¥ve elected not
to notate it. Just play it by ear and add plenty of pick-scrapes at the end.
All the bends in Rhythm fig. 4 are 1/4-steps. For the tap harmonic in
Solo 2, lightly tap the G-string over the 21st fret.
Key:
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
b = bend (whole step)
b^ = bend (1/2 step)
b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb = pre-bend
r = release-bend
t = tap with righthand finger
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
~ = Vibrato
* = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
** = Artificial Harmonic
x = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\) = Dive w\bar
(/) = Release w\bar
Tp = Tap w\plectrum
