This is a transcription of "Petite Etude", a solo acoustic piece from
Triumph's "Allied Forces" LP. I learned this about 10 years ago, and
don't have the album anymore so I hope it's close. I don't have any
classical background, so the last half of the song is a bit tricky to
play cleanly and evenly. If you haven't heard it before, it has a
classical feel to it, and sounds impressive when played clean.
Note: The '\' found in the 17th bar indicates a slide from 7th to 5th fret.
