So What! (1988) Tabbed by Chris Rezendes (dudemcrude@yahoo.com) Date started tab: 10/24/03 Date finished tab: 10/24/03 Tuning: E (Standard) Copy: First Notation Key ~: vibrato ^: bend .: palm mute r: release t: trill p: pull-off h: hammer-on x: ghost note /: slide up \: slide down Comments: It occured to me while tabbing this that I needed to point something out- when I refer to "Guitar 1" or "Guitar 2", it has nothing to do with one guitar having left or right channel, or in the case of a band, in this case Megadeth (so we'll go with guys who were IN Megadeth), one guitar being Dave's or the other being Jeff's. I merely say guitar 1 and guitar 2 when a riff or figure is multi-layered, so you know one guitar is playing one part and one is playing the other. "Guitar 1" is just the part I get around to tabbing first. Anyhow, I was playing with this song, and I decided to tab it. There are other tabs out there for this song, I just feel this one is much more correct and at the very least I'm sure it's more complete. If you see anything that looks funny, let me know so I can fix it up for you. Later. ===========+=================================================================== Riff 1 x1 Guitar 1 e|-------------------------------| B|-------------------------------|
