Super Sonic Theme
Sonic The Hedgehog 2
Composed by Masato Nakamura
Tabbed by Suddenimpact711
Submitted 10/16/2013
This is the first tab i've ever submitted online, hopefully it's in working order I'm kind of
obsessive when it comes to the notes & timing in my tabs so it should be.
I noticed i've tabbed a plethora of game songs that either aren't on any sites or ones that
are hard to find & had flashback of the disdain of not being able to find that one obscure
song you really want there to be a good tab for so I decided to upload some of them.
If anyone wants any of the techniques used to play the song like the staccato parts or
anything comment your question and ill give a brief tutorial.
I apologize if the Guitar 1, bass 1, Guitar 2, bass 2 format is hard to read but i've tabbed
this song so it can be played with just the basic melody and harmony or with the next 2
instruments added for more intensity. Season to taste.
Final note: If you download the full Powertab file be sure to click View on the top menu bar
and click bass tab (or just press F3) for the other 2 parts, If you're a new user it can slip
by, I missed that myself when I first got it.
