    the Revving-uppeth
    At this point the left should pinch-fret 333000 over the neck,
  • with various strummings at everincreasing velocities with minor
    variations on the fingerings as the song will indicate. At which
    point, having achieved escape velocity, one pulls off to 000000:

  • roughly repeat the above (more or less) about three times, after which:
     
    E---------------------3---------------------------------------
  • C---------------------3---again, several strums upon this-----
    0G---------------------3---chord, as what whim moves you,------
    8D-lo3--3--3->-10-p-0--1---and then a repeat of line 06, only--

    D-lo3--3--3->-10-p-0--1---the 7h and 5h ones. Listen....------
     
  • ...and after THAT....about three more times of line 07, then
    another of line eight, at which point it takes off from the:
     
  • E--3-.--5--.--7--.--8--.--7--.--5--.--7--.--8--.--8--The dots-

    After all this, one starts the mad bury-steel-splinters-in-yo-
    thumb slide parts, thusly:
  •  
    E-----------0---------0---------0--------3-----5--------------
    C-----------0---------0---------0--------3-----5--------------

  • D--lo3-->--10--3-->--10--3-->--10--p--0--1-->--3--------------
     
    This also repeats about three times, then follows another line 09,
  • then another set of these, and then...oh, eventually a crash'n'burn
    variation on line 06 with lots of offkey harmonics, screeching to a
    halt with a ferocious hammer-on over the neck with the left hand
  • on a 333000 chord, after which collapse from oxygen depletion is in
    order, and makes a touching finale.
    * * * * ** * * ** ** *
  • So...let's see where I can further confuse the issue....
    Line 03: the 3h is an octave up from the 7h and sounds wonderful,
    if it can be coaxed into being. All those initial harmonic chords
  • are nice slightly arpeggiated, although just a fist-impact (*POW]*)
    will do as well.
    Line 05: the X7h7h7h7h15 is indeed a bit of a stretch, so I
  • often use the other harmonic node (don't ask at which fret, my
    hyperoctaves aren't too great) which involves a flamenco-style
    right-handed strum with the heel of the thumb brushing the
  • strings at the requisite fret to get the harmonic. It's about
    fret 18 or 20 or something; two before the hole on my machine.
    Line 06: the harmonics can also be arpeggiated; he does them
  • both ways, since that line more or less crops up more than once.
    Line 07: He accompanies the slap against the body with a
    short strum, or something. It comes out slightly different when
  • I play it; too much intuition fluxing it up, I guess. He frets the
    slide from lo3 to pulloff to the 12h (or whatever sounds good; I
    do it a bit differently, and this may not be exact...prob'ly ain't)
  • with his left index finger over the neck, then hits the 555555
    from under the neck as a regular chord.
    Line 08: The lo3's (and following slides later on) are fretted
  • over the neck with the left thumb. Most of the overneck hammer-ons
    are pinch-hit with the left index and thumb.
  • PLAY TOO ..
