"King in Crimson" (B. Dickinson, Roy Z.) Guitar transcription by Aaron Shay (zerosig8@apk.net) Ok...First of all,to play this song correctly you need at least one of two things : a.) A guitar fit with bass strings and tuned to drop A. or b.) A guitar in normal tuning with a Digitech Whammy Pedal. (Or other unit that drops the pitch one octave) Since the chances are better (yet still slim) that some of you may have the second, I will tab it for normal guitar tuning.
