AIN'T QUITE RIGHT (from the 1978 solo KISS "PAUL STANLEY" transcribed by Adnrewrocku) -------------------- Tuned down 1/2-step Comments: I was looking through the KISS tabs and thought it to be a damn shame that Aint Quite right was not yet included. Aside from the brilliant arrangement and melody .. this is a simple song yet complex in the different guitars used. There's two different electric on the left and right and 12 string in the middle along with a heavy middle power chord electric during power chords. I've not included the solo and outro solo but they can be found at http://www.kissasylum.com/kisstabs/main.shtml along with just about every other KISS song in the paramount KISS catalog.(There are also some E-bow playing after the solo and in the outro that I've also not included here.) Also I switched to the 12 string variation of the lyric chords after the first lyric just for versatility. This is my first tab so I'm keeping it simple and easy to understand.
