 Standard tuning


 


 Comments: In Rhy. Fig 6c it says "Manipulate toggle switch". This is one of


 Ace's trademarks. His guitars, Gibson Les Paul by the way, only have one


 pickup wired, the bridge one. The three-way selector on the Les Paul has the


 bridge in the "down" position, the two pickups in series (or the middle


 pickup alone on the three-pickup model) in the "middle" position, and neck


 pickup in the "up" position. Ace basically grabs the toggle switch and flips


 it between the "up" and "down" position, usually in a triplet feel, thereby


 

 
 creating this "now-you-hear-it-now-you-don¥t" sound. If you have a Les Paul

 


 or a similar guitar, just turn off the volume to the neck pickup and you


 can do the same thing.


 


 Key:


 / = slide up


 \ = slide down


 b = bend (whole step)


 b^ = bend (1/2 step)


 b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)


 pb = pre-bend


 r = release-bend


 t = tap with righthand finger


 h = hammer-on


 p = pull-off


 ~ = Vibrato


 * = Natural Harmonic




 ** = Artificial Harmonic


 x = Dead notes (no pitch)


 P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)


 (\) = Dive w\bar


 (/) = Release w\bar


 Tp = Tap w\plectrum
