STP - "Hello, Its Late"
From "Shangri-La Dee Da"
Standard Tuning
tabbed by jjhand
The Song uses an acoustic and 2 electrics. Electric 2 plays the solo partially with a
fast rate chorus pedal which gives the tone a warble similar to leslie effect organs.
Dean DeLeo uses a Boss Chorus Ensemble pedal to get that tone.
Acoustic Intro (sounds like a 12 string) - play 4x
