                    Final Fantasy 8 - The Oath GUITAR TAB
                           Song by Nobuo Uematsu

              Arranged & tabbed by auriplane ([email protected])

This is an arrangement.  I tried to be a little creative with this one, so
let me know what you think.  I made a MIDI of it so you can hear what it's
supposed to sound like.  Constructive criticism is appreciated!!

EDIT: Thanks to Kabuki for some advice :-D

Drop-D tuning.

Exellent tab, I hadn't seen yet

You've done a really good job

You've done a really good job with this one. It's one of my favourite pieces from Final Fantasy VIII so I really appreciate this submission. I'm now gonna check out your other tabs, keep up the good work.

Thank you!! Most of my tabs

Thank you!! Most of my tabs aren't guitar arrangements but that's what I'm into making lately ^-^

It'd be cool if the site would let you sort them by type. I put all the solo guitar arrangements at the top of my website, but I'd rather link people here than there. But if you just want to see that kind of tab, and skip out on all the transcriptions and bass tabs, they're at the top of my dumb website at http://www.xtalcy.com/

Nice

Its got the depth to it, without sacrificing much playability and making it a bit of a challenge too.

Well done.
