Slayer "Piece By Piece" from REIGN IN BLOOD (1986)

Tabbed by Nick S. (Pantera9560@aol.com) If you E-mail me you must use the subj. "Piece By
Piece tabs" or "Slayer guitar tabs" or something like that.

Note: Kerry and Jeff usually tune their guitars down a half step, but my guitar has a
Floyd Rose trem system, which makes it hard to detune and then get it back to the
standard tuning, so I figured this song out in standard tuning. But DON'T PANIC!!! I
worked on this song very carefully and I made sure it sounds like the album. Oh yeah, I'm
not gonna say what stuff is palm-muted 'cause you can tell from listening to it.
So turn the distortion all the way up and go nuts with this masterpiece!

(For 4A & 4B, I think all the shredding on the open E string is done entirely by one gtr.
The other guitar is playing what you see above.)
