5 Guitar Amps for Beginners That Are Actually Great
Afinação: D A D G B ETecla: GCapotraste: Sem capotraste
There are a couple inaccuracies because there are two guitars in this song, plus I tried to add in the bass
notes as well, but I think as an acoustic cover it works pretty well.
In the song when the chords are played, you can't actually hear the B string, but I kept it in cause I think
it sounds pretty, so if you want it to sound more accurate, mute the b string when you play the chords.
This song is in drop D, so tune your low E string down to D.
