Song: Dig
Band: Mudvayne
Inst: Bass
Tabbed by:Greg
Copied, Pasted, and Re-tabbed by fakeLIFE42

Hey, I just decided to embark on a bit of a tabbing quest, ala pelvicthrust.  I'm taking each of pelvicthrusts' tabs, and 
I'm retabbing them in standard 5-string tuning. I decided to do this to help out all the people like me, that dont feel
like taking the time to downtune their basses. I'm doing every single mudvayne song this way (except for goodbye, on 
the move, and kill I oughta).  I think you'll notice that I rarely (if ever) use the E-string. If anybody has any 
requests for a song to tab next, just email me. all credit to the extremely accurate original tab go to pelvicthrust.

Oh yeah, If you wanna see a sweet Dig video (It shows Ryan like the whole verse, real
close up) go on Kazaa and download Dig Live in Germany. Its by far the best Dig video
I've seen, besides live of course.

Tuning:
G
D                 s=slap        this is like the only mudvayne song that has
A                 p=pluck       consistent timing, so I put in the 4 beat thing
E                         
B

Intro      (I spread it out more so it doesnt get so cluttered)
                                  v = 4 beats (to make it even easier)

If you have the dig dvd, i strongly advise you to change the angle (so it shows ryan
the whole time) and watch the studio fills, you WILL SEE that they're dead on.

He does some of the fills different live so here they are)
