Big Fat Mama by Status Quo Tabbed By: Belavista Man On: 06/05/07 E-mail: anthonybentley@hotmail.co.uk Here is my rendition on the solo from one of my favourite Quo songs, 'Big Fat Mama'. are a couple of pointers about the TAB: - In part 1 of the solo, the guitars are both palm muted. In part 2, the guitars go much and are not muted at all. - Guitars 1 and 2 play together at the same time, in both parts of the solo. - Guitar 2 is basically playing the same thing as guitar 1, but an octave higher.
