Battle Axe by Deftones ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Battle Axe - Deftones ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Cross 6/03/03 Email:xcrossx1@yahoo.com I finally decided to release my tabs to the public (check the bottom for the reason why I didn't in the first place). Tuning:Here is Stephen's REAL tuning G#,C#,F#,B,E,G#,C#. Thats 4 1/2 steps down from regular tuning and 2 1/2 steps down for 7 string. I play these on a regular Guitar so I don't have the extra C# but it still sounds 99-100% correct. Note: You gotta play this song with style or it wont sound right. Intro Guitar 1 each time you play it bring in a little more distortion The last time around the end changes a bit.
