cool sounding, but some parts
cool sounding, but some parts are impossible and other parts could probably be fingered better.
I might play through it more just cause it's pretty cool sounding
The only part that's actually
The only part that's actually impossible is the chord on measure 32. I like to leave the chords in my tab complete so that the player can choose to omit the notes they would like to omit. I can play through the rest of this with no sweat. Where else are you having trouble?
That's not impossible, just
That's not impossible, just incredibly, incredibly awkward. :-D
The hardest part for me was getting my ring finger to collapse far enough at the last joint (so it could fret strings 4 and 5, but not bump 3) and still keep my middle finger straight (to fret 3 without bumping 2). I couldn't do it--I'm not sure it's possible for my hand--but I figured out I could collapse my middle finger too if I barred it across 3 and 4, almost just like my ring finger.
Actually, now that I've figured that out, I can kinda do the E major barre shape with just those three fingers. My pinky on 12 ends up almost entirely sideways, though...
EXERCISES IN CONTORTION
I showed that stretch to
I showed that stretch to another gametabber and he said he could successfully bar the chord in the way you described too. I usually only play the top three notes and the note on the 6th string, but I figured maybe someone with bigger hands could successfully pull it off, and if not, they can choose what notes to play anyway!
Imo the question is whether
Imo the question is whether it can be done *in tempo*, rather than as an isolated chord that you take a long time to set up.
Personally I wouldn't put something in a tab if I couldn't play it myself. To me it being in the tab means it's expected of whoever tries the tab. On the other hand, caveat emptor. Nobody is making anybody do anything.
And you're right, there's
And you're right, there's only 1 part that's impossible without a contorting.
But the main reason I gave this a 4 was because of all the unnecessary hand jumping instead of just staying in the same area. For example:
instead of this:
I would play
I would redo this:
like this
either natural harmonic it so you can pluck it with your picking hand or just play the note so you're not dropping all the way down to 3 just for 1 note then back up to 8.
Like I said, really cool sounding. If you fix some of the fingerings I'll give it a 5 easily. Great sounding! I can tell you put a lot of work into this, these kinds of songs are challenging and I thank you for doing it =)
Ehhhh, I actually like
Ehhhh, I actually like Lemon's way better for the first example. There's a jump, but the fingerings themselves are less awkward, more familiar.
I appreciate you posting the
I appreciate you posting the alternate fingerings so that someone who wanted to play this tab now has two ways of playing those parts! I have it completely memorized in the way I wrote it out, so I don't think i'll be changing the actual tab, my focus is getting a good recording now. It is a really beautiful song though isn't it? cheers
I'm gonna change my rating to
I'm gonna change my rating to a 5 cause it DOES sound good the way you have it, though a little more difficult than needed =)
thanks bud~
