Local H - Eddie Vedder guitar tab
Tuning: Standard tuning down 1/2 step
This song, as far as i can tell, uses one guitar. I think it sounds best
with my strat-styled guitar with the bridge pickup engaged and medium
distortion.
Play this first riff 5 times. Notes in parenthesis mean to bend the string
up to that pitch. Example: -2-(3)-(2)- would mean to bend the string at the
second fret up one-half step and release it.

This second part is played only twice the first time but it is used again
later. Stop at the X after you played it once the first time.

Now play the first part again 4 times. Then the second part is played 4
times. Stop at the X again on the 4th time. Then play the third part once
again.
Then play this riff 4 times. Stop at the X on the 4th time. The x's on the
line mean to mute the strings.

This solo goes over the last riff. It is played by another guitar and starts
midway through the last riff. Play the part after the X twice. Once again,
notes in parenthesis are bent strings. The slash means to pull off or hammer
on.
