Tool - Forty Six and Two
Aenima
Drop D Tuning
h - hammer on
p - pull off
b - bend string
x - mute string
. - palm mute
- slide up (toward head stock)
/ - slide down (toward bridge)
- slide all the way up the neck
// - slide all the way down the neck
ph - pinch harmonic
(5) - ghost note
<5> - natural harmonic
Note: This song is played with light and heavy distortion,
flange, & wah. Although, I havent indicated when
it used in this tab.. sorry.
Also... I realize there are easier ways to play these
riffs. This is tabbed from watching bootleg copies
of live shows. This is meant to be accurate. Not easy.
Otherwise, you are getting a different tone.
