song:Calm like a Bomb
band:RATM
tabbed by:Tim Flug
For this song you will need a whammy pedal, wah-wah
pedal and the right electronics. For the intro, set
the neck pickup volume to 10 and the bridge pickup
volume to 0. quickly switch the pickup selector switch
back and forth. I mean we're talking quickley!Also you
gotta gradually push down the whammy pedal. Listen to
the song for the timing of the whammy. I also got a
comment saying you tune the 6 string all the way down to
an A. It does make sense once you do it so give it a shot.
Intro (note above) also w/dist.
