The trick is to hammer the note with the volume control off, then turn it up then down. On the Delay, have the feed back about 50% with the Choirs. A word of WARNING!!!! When I was learning this I froze 2 volume controls. After the 4th I stopped playing this song. I'am in a Christain rock band and when you play this it turn heads. Have fun. -0----------1---------|-0-------------------2--------|-0---------1------------ -0----------1---------|-0-------------------5--------|-0---------1------------
