Album: PLEASE HAMMER, DONīT HURT THEM
--------------------

Standard tuning
Comments: I forget who requested this but here it is. The main
Riff is based on Rick Janes old song Super Freak and comes in
two variants. Since I didnīt find any pattern to how they are
used (I just listened to the song once) Iīve just listed them
here. Alternate them at will. The second part, the breakdown,
is harder to play because this "bass" is played by a synth on
the album. The line though is here. Make sure those hammer-ons
and pull-offs are fluid.
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
#(#) = Trill
x = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
Tp = Tap w\plectrum
