Matt Stroobant plays with a blues distortion, fuzz and also fuzz-wah so it helps with
sound if you have a version of these but a single fuzz pedal combined with amp gain will
fine.

Towards the end of the riff another guitar comes in the back with some rising feedback, then:

I could?ve put the old verse here but the thing is Matt plays the riff with palm muting
time and he also introduces a Flanger or something similar for this riff.

Legend:
Lr-let ring
ho-hammer on
po-pull of
b-bend
x-dead note
h(#)-harmonic(hash means fret no.)
HB-HOLD bend
f-feedback(by using or amp or high volume)

It looks repetitive on paper and it is when u play but if u get the feeling across it
wicked. Neways, I hope the tab is decent, please rate it and if you like Kiwi Rock and
or you?ve got some suggestions then email me on jamesdonaldson@hot-shot.com

cheers
