Playing Suggestions
* There is no correct way to set your guitar, acoustic or electric,
since the original piece isn't really for guitars. So just
listen to the piece and use your own choice. You can probably
make it sound nice with some weird flanger stuff in some spots.
It's supposed to be kind of a creepy tune anyway.
* The different guitar parts are lined up accordingly.
* Suggestions listed later as needed.

NOTES
* This tablature was made by a beginner guitarist (me), so
don't expect too much out of it.
* Feedback is highly appreciated. If you think a particular
passage could be tabbed better or maybe I have a wrong note, or
you have interesting amp settings or anything else, then let me
know. (Amp settings especially, since my amp sucks and I don't
have any pedals and stuff)
* As with all tablature, view this with a FIXED-WIDTH font.
* This piece is actually for organ, harpsichord, and
synthesizer. Or probably just synthesizers, but it
sounds nice with guitars, which is why I did it.
* I interpreted this tab from audio data taken directly
off of the Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Playstation game CD and converted into WAV form.
* If you've played Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, then
you'll recognize this piece from the Marble Gallery as
the title suggests.
* I'm curious about the name of the author of this piece and
the other Castlevania SOTN music as well. E-mail me if
you know.
