GUITARLINE

As recorded by Fantômas
From the album "The Director's Cut"
Transcribed by Angus MacLeod (trefine)

Track Number: 15
Track Length: 3:28

Drop Tuning (low to high: C G C F A D)

KEY:
... = Palm muting
x\  = Pick scrape sliding down
^   = Tremelo Picking
h   = hammer on
p   = puul off
~   = vibrato
 
The lowest note in this song is C.
However as previously tabbed golem on the same album is B and Buzz uses the same guitar for each of these songs live (if i remember correctly). So if you can't be bothered tuning differenty for each fantomas song, just add 1 fret higher to every note in this tab (this is what buzzo would have done live) as i have tabbed it for drop C as i believe was used to record it and others on the album. A heavier string gauge will help to get that nice big sound (as well as a lespaul, 2 marshall heads,etc) and may be necessary for the low tuning. From standard, tune to drop D and then tune all the strings down another step. So it becomes:
 
6th= C   3rd=F
5th= G   2nd=A
4th= C   1st=D

A------------------------------------------xxx\-
E-4---3-0---4---3-0---4---3-0---4---3-0----xxx\-
 
No guitar in the first quiet bit.
 
VERSE: the guitar sounds kinda drowned out but this is what i make of it.
       NOTE: i think buzzo uses a slide for this. it comes in handy later.
             tremelo picking (quick/rapid up/down constant picking like
             in surf music)

QUIET BIT 2: probably not guitar but sounds good with some wah.
             roll back the volume pot a bit for this.

This next bit is just bass, drums and that sample.
When this stops and theres the high pitched keyboard sound,
you can use the slide to imitate this by putting it over the
bridge pickup and plucking the strings individually starting
with the high e.
 
HEAVY BIT: really hit those chords
