Slipknot - Meolic guitar tab
Song: Metabolic
Artist: Slipknot
Album: Iowa
Tabbed by: Christian / silent_warrior_@hotmail.com
This one took some time to tab..but it's worth it. I tried to make it as detailed as
possible..as you can see I put the times that each part is supposed to be played.
This should be very accurate. Play the harmonics on the 3rd fret (3.75 to be exact).
Don't move up a fret..I heard some people move up a fret when playing harmonics.
Please rate this tab if you use it..thanks!
PM - Palm mute the notes that have a - under them
p - Pull off
/ - Slide up
~ - Vibrato
* - Harmonic
