Joe Satriani: "Ceremony" off Crystal Planet

tab by Yuri Zhukov

Comments, corrections, constructive critisism welcome.

This is pretty straightforward. For a Satch song, "Ceremony" is

pretty easy. I know he uses a ton of effects on this song, but

all you really need is a wah and overdrive. I tabbed it out the

way I play it. I know some of the positions can be kind of awkward

for some people, especially when you get to the solo. I don't

know, I love long streches, and I know Joe does, too. Just

make sure you warm up first.

Key:

^=legato

9(11)=bend note to pitch in parentheses

~=vibrato

ph=pinch harmonic

t=tap

w/ wah

Back to main theme.

Then Joe does a little outro solo, it's basically

just tremolo picking triads on the C#minor scale.
