GUERRILLA RADIO - Rage Against the Machine

This is another cool RATM song....and easy...
The intro, bridge and Solo are double tracked in this song
you need a whammy, a wah and a flanger and a tremelo
i've done both guitar parts. They are one on top of eachother.
They are synchronized so that when gt 1 plays a note, gt2's note 
is directly underneath it. (you'll work it out)

INTRO

gt 1 plays with TREMELO here
i really can't stress that enough

(play first measure x7 instead of x15)

(last measure is the same as the first 7
i.e. play the first measure 8x)

BRIDGE

turn on the flanger and the wah....
make a wide sweeping "motion" w/ the wah
over the whole measure...

GUITAR SOLO
from what i know, what I've seen and the capabilities of my
guitar, I'm pretty sure this is how Tom plays the solo:
use the toggle switch and the wah and set the whammy to 
harmonize up two octaves. These are all hammer-ons w/ the left
hand. Neck pickup vol. 0, Bridge pickup vol. 10....
ok...now the toggling pattern....
whenever you hammer-on, flick the switch to the bridge....
observe the notation..N = neck pickup, B = brigde pickup

N.B. - this is the studio version of the solo, tabbed for two guitars
he does it differently, playing the GT1 part and having the whammy set
to one ocatve harmonise.....

REST 8 measures....

OUTRO
both guitars here
