CARPAL TUNNEL SLUG - Buckethead

Alright. This one wouldn�t be too hard to figure out if I would have done it
right the first time. I did it in Standard E tuning, then I thought it was in
drop D, until I realized every string was tuned down 3 half steps. Who woulda
thunk? So give me an extra star for putting the extra hour in to transpose it
up 3 half steps.
Anyways, this is a fun tune, but it shouldn�t be played alone. At least play
along with the recording. There are a lot of parts (even if I didn�t
show them) where the bass drops out and it�s just guitar. I sort of explained
when to do this but I was getting bored, so you can figure out when to rest.
This is 99% correct, but corrections are much appreciated. I did one editing
round and caught something HUGE (nothing huge is left [I think]), but that�s
probably not enough. I know I made mistakes.
In fact I have already caught a mistake since I added it.
