Megadeth

Megadeth - SkinO My Teeth guitar tab

Since I'm bored lately, I thought I'd transcribe some other solo pieces

from Megadeth (Yes, again. It's their 'fault', not mine...)

Explanations: P - pull off

H - hammer on

B - bend

R - release bend

/ - slide up

- slide down

^ - upstroke (the pick moves towards the sky. "Pull")

v - downstroke (the pick moves towards the ground. "Push")

(5) - let ring the indicated note, but don't pick

SECOND: A piece from Skin o' my Teeth

(Megadeth, Countdown to Extinction)

Note: Play triplets!

Watch out for the next part!

(Hope I can make enough money to buy a new electric guitar...

It's really hard to transcribe solos with a classic guitar!)
