5 Cheap Guitars That Are Actually Great
Afinação: A E A D F# BCapotraste: Sem capotraste
This is Nico's riff from Silvered Shadows.
Any changes are welcomed as I am not musically educated and this may not be perfect.
Nico uses a 7 string but I'm not certain if he uses the extra string for this riff.
I have tabbed it out on my 6 string and it sounds right to me.
Tempo: 180
Tuning: Drop A (A,E,A,D,F#,B)
Key: A#/Bb
