Here is the tab to "Modoc" by Steve Morse, off of 1989's album
"High Tension Wires". The guitar is actually in stereo, with each
string alternately going from left to right. This makes transcribing
a bit easier, since if you hear a particular note and it could be
on two strings, you need only listen to which side of the stereo it's
coming out of. Anyway, without further ado:
"Modoc":
Tuning: From low to high, Eb Bb Eb G Bb Eb
Notation: / means slide up, h and p are hammer-on and pull-off,
H means natural harmonic, i.e. 12H is the natural harmonic on the
12th fret. In the case of 0h12H, you play the open string and
then lightly touch above the 12th fret to get the harmonic.
