Popcorn Tab by Hot Butter


This tab is played COMPLETELY using harmonics...

The original piece is played in D Major... but unless you want to drop the tuning of
your guitar 5 semi-tones, it is easier to just play it in G Major. Part A is relatively
easy to play, just a matter of moving fast enough between harmonics... - the actual tune
isn't even that fast... but it's quite impressive if you play it at anything around the
150BMP+ mark.

Part B is a little harder because of the harmonics being that much harder to find,
especially the harmonic of the 2nd fret on the 'A' string - it shouldn't be a problem
if you have accurate fingers... but miss it by just the slightest bit and you'll either
hit a different harmonic, or mute it... - it is not exactly ontop of the 2nd fret. it is
just above it (towards the headstock). Anyway... thats the only note I have a hard time
with... the rest is just a matter of fluency... have fun.

Advanced: After it has played once through, it then gets alittle
more tech... not massively harder... but just hitting extra notes
here and there and abit more interest concerning the rhythm...
