• Song:

    Druken Butterfly

  • Artist:

    Sonic Youth

Tuning: F#F#GGAA

This tab may sound shit when you play it yourself but add bass, 
another guitar, drums and vocals and it will sound perfect.


INTRO:    The intro is just a heap of string noise (mutes, rakes
and pick slides). I got the right sound by sliding the pick up 
and down the strings furiously...rest your fret hand on top of 
the strings to prevent the strings from ringing.
