- Tuning: Standard EADGBethis song is played by using a plectrum, rather
- than a finger picking technique, but i find it easier to fingerpick theriff.
- to achieve an authentic effect on your guitar like it is in the song,use quite a lot of distortion so each note sounds crisp when it ringsand use a bit of reverb, too.
