Pain Of Salvation - Scarsick guitar tab
Pain Of Salvation - Scarsick
From the album: Scarsick
Transcribed by: Travis Lausch
This song's guitar parts are all about texture. I couldn't even be bothered to tab out a
of the parts, because they're either buried in the mix, or there are so many of them
are really playing nothing. I haven't included the order of the riffs or anything,
have to figure that out yourselves. And it should be really goddamn easy to do that. I
a couple of live videos to confirm hand positions in the intro and other riffs.
So basically, the trick to this song is to "feel" it. This isn't your typical "precise"
metal song. The guitars are almost purely textural in this song.

There are plenty of guitar noises involving bending the string with wah in this section.
can't be bothered to tab them all out, but they're pretty much based around the 7th
on the 4th string, and occasionally following the chord progression of the chorus. The
is occasionally played with power chords as well, rather than just single notes.
