Tenacious D

Text File

The Metal Tenecious D I�ve seen a lot of tabs for this floating around that are just plain wrong or don�t even bother to include anything but the main riff. Wrong tabs and lazy tabbers annoy me. Here�s how the whole song is actually played: Guitar 1: Tuned to Drop D. Decently heavy distortion on this guitar, I believe it�s with the neck pickup. Guitar 2: Standard Tuning, same guitar as Guitar 3 but with heavy distortion and a phase shifter. Guitar 3: Standard Tuning. Same guitar as Guitar 2 without the effects, Bridge Pickup, with the tone about half way.

Guitar 3: Done using alternate "travis picking" technique where you play with a flat pick and your middle finger. Takes a bit of practice, but it's really easy, especially what's expected of one in this song.
