Key:
where # represents a fret number

#h# - hammer
#p# - pull
/ \ - slides, up and down respectively.
#b# - bend from normal note up to achieve bended note.
#r# - release bend from bended note to normal note.
pb# - pre-bend. on fret #, bend up a half step then 
     attack and release
#b  - curl. not a full bend, just slight.

 &  - substitution. some symbols (like 5h7 for instance)
      are too big to fit inbetween bass-line hits. " & "
      is used to fit such symbols into the bass-line with out 
      having to increase the spacing of the bass-line. The 
      " & " symbol is used within the boxes and the symbol 
      it is substituting for is shown out side the box. 
      Here is 2:28 shown as an example:
