Tune to C and mess around and you’ll probably get most of it yourself. There’s also some tabs round these boards somewhere.

Polar Bear’s man riff is like this;

c————————————————————————————-
G————————————————————————————-
D#————————————————————————————
A#————————————————————————————
F—10-7-7-7-7-7-7-9-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-7-7-7-7-7-7—7-7-7-7-7-7
C——————————————————————-3—————-

The solo is the same but bend the root notes.

Well, if that’s any help…

try this:

LEARN TO LISTEN TO SOMETHING, AND THEN WORK IT OUT! FOR FUCKS SAKE!

kids, today. imagine if Jimmy Page, or Jimi Hendrix had the same lack of ability as some of you people! how hard is it, really, to listen to a note on a guitar… and then play it!

GET. A. GRIP.

ahhh, but the point is: think for yourself

look my problem is not lack of ability or lack of independant thought i am quite a proficient guitarist if you need proof let me know and ill post some of my bands songs.

My problem is like Misanthropologist said i do not have the greatest ear in the world and therefore i find it hard to figure out music i listen to i have a try at it as can be senn from my attempt to work out rock you monkeys which is by no means a hard song to play but the difficulty lies in figuring the damn thing out.

so if you have all this talent but arnt willing to help out please instead of lecturing me about how crap i am and how i should be ashamed by my lack of guitar skills kindly fuck off

exactly ive been playing guitar for 4 years now and ive been in my band for over a year and in that year weve done 3 nationwide tours with 2 more getting planned right now, so jsut because you cant work out music by ear means that your an incompetant guitarist by any means

thats cool man i cant send large attachments through my email but i can give you a link to all the songs we have available for download

;) cheers man do you have any mp3s of your band i would really like to hear them

thats some quality riffage there man, even though my band tends to stay on the quieter side of music we have our fair share of heavy tracks as i was born a metaller and i will die a metaller lol

Title: nane tabs…

drop your tuning to c…then drop it the bottom string in the same way you would for drop D.This is now drop A , and I’ve found that most of the songs are in this tuning.If youre guitar is buzzing when you take it this low or the strings just flop around
1. Your guitar may be a bit “crap”
2.You need to raise the action, This means it’s a bit harder to play, but it sounds a lot better.

Also it means you can take a lot more of the bass off the settings… and still get a growl from the bowels of HELL!!!!!

Title: p.s

High gauge strings are a definite advantage too.But this may be my own opinion here.
Im a big fan of listening to stuff to figure it out…Im not really one for tech stuff…but I can noodle with the best of them..I think it all depends on the person..I learnt guitar when I was kid listening to Kyuss, Ive been playing for 8 years, and I couldn’t tell what the strings are on the guitar, or what chords are what.
Its just horses for courses…Different people, different approaches…BUT

THERE IS NOTHING(!) BETTER THAN CRANKING UP ANY THERAPY? ALBUM AND CRANKING UP THE AMP AND PLAYING ALONG, REGARDLESS OF HOW YOU LEARNT IT, OR BUM NOTES

Title: hmmmmm

maybe, like I said I’m not really competant when it comes to tech/ tab…written stuff…You’re probably right.;)
Have you tried that tuning?…its pretty low.”from ear” its a close match to the stuff Andy’s hitting…(i.m.h.o.)

Straight C or dropped C ?

My belief was that High Anxiety was in a mix of Drop-C and standard C, and that the majority, if not all of NANE was in standard C.

He’s right, I think, which means I agree. Playing T? on bass therefore is a lot easier wih a 5-string because you don’t have to retune your bass or use several different ones.

Korn play in drop A, and NANE doesnt sound nearly as low as that…

I’m not saying you are wrong tho…
