Trivium tabs needed
by Ebut on Sun Oct 01, 2006 6:44 pm
I am looking for the tabs of "Pulling Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr", "Gunshot To The Head Of Trepidation" and "Dying In Your Arms" tabs. Guitar Pro would be awesome!

Oh and please some correct tabs if manageable Laughing

Anyone got any?
...the names of the open tunings
by atarilovesyou on Thu Oct 05, 2006 6:07 pm
I was thinking the other day, I have a few guitars all set to what I consider common tunings....one is what I call standard E (EADGBE), one is the same with a the low E tuned to D (Drop D, most call it)....and the same for another 2 guitars where the whole EADGBE is dropped a half step down. I call that E flat tuning.

However, and this is just a small question, I realize that if you play all the strings on a standard tuned guitar , ie , EADGBE you get a type of chord...wouldn't it be a form of G major, since all those notes are found in the G major scale?

Likewise, what would you call the open D tuning, technically?

Does anybody know? Just wondering.

harmonics
by shrunken_ed on Fri Oct 20, 2006 11:52 am
Could any of you wonderfully bright guitar folks tell me the difference between pitched harmonics and natural harmonics??

and how to do em?

i think i kinda know how to the PH, roughly, in theory anyhow...

Gotta try clip the string with my thumb immediatly after the pick...i can just about do that...occasionally lol.

but i have no idea for a NH
Should I do this?

I've been wanting a Dean for awhile now and I've been playing for about over a year. I'm trying to save up to buy a 79 ML and a new amp so my parents won't have to pay for more of my crap than they already do. But however I noticed that the Baby DFH starter pack is only like $200, and I was wondering If I should ask for one for the holidays just to hold me over till I'm old enough to get a job (August). Because right now I have just a samick Mailbu...

So I was wondering If it would be worth it. If the baby would play better than my current guitar, the mean 10 I'm not to concerned about because I already have a little 15 watt crate. But Does Anyone know how they play?
Cemetary Gates Question
by Walk_From_Hell on Sun Oct 22, 2006 4:59 pm
I was watching the dime clinic video again and I saw that when he was doing cemetary gates. It looked like he was playing it higher than I do, so does anyone does anyone have a more accurate tab for this part:

G------------------------------4-----------------------------------------
D-2------------2-1-2-3-2-3---2---2------------2-1-2-3-1-2---1---
A-0-0-0-0-0------------------------0-0-0-0-0-----------------3---2
E-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any help would be appreciated.
My DOA track
by Thor Malleuson on Wed Oct 25, 2006 3:26 pm
Seeing how the DOA 2006 CD isn't likely ever to be released, here is my track.

The Howitzer

Here is the signal chain:
Dean Custom Time Capsule V -> Miracle Man pickup -> ISP Decimator -> ENGL Powerball -> Marshall 1960A cabinet.

To record the tune:
Sure SM-57 (pointing directly at center of upper left cone) -> Behringer Eurorack UB1002 mixer (EQ's set at center) -> Fostex MR8 eight track digital recorder.

I played a POS Rouge bass through my ENGL's clean channel too. I double tracked all the rhythms, the verse bits, and the solo. I mixed with Acoustica's Mixcraft and programmed the drums using Acoustica's Beatcraft.

Backing Tracks
by bsmith on Tue Oct 31, 2006 4:34 pm
Does anyone know where I can get my hands on some decent rock/metal backing track tracks? I've checked out some links from other posts here but they all seem to be dead and yes I've used google but it never seems to take me to any sites that have Rock or Metal tracks. And I don't have enough free time to make my own. I just want something I can jam along with and build up my skills.

Thank!
