Band: MetallicA
Song: Master Of Puppets
Album: Master Of Puppets
Tabbed By: Moti G. aka "MAG", [email protected], 2004
Instrument: Guitar (transcribed for single guitar, originally two guitars)
Tuning: standard (E A D G B e)
Notes:
The whole song is distorted exept one accoustic riff played by james. all the riffs are played in downwards picking motion,
not alternate picking, therefor this is a pretty hard song, also lots of palm muting. listen to the song to gte the correct rythm and speed. i might rewrite it with seperate lead
ythm guitar duties later.
Key:
----
h=hammer on
p=pull off
=slide down
/=slide up
b=bend
~=vibrato
()=let ring
x=dead note (finger mute)
...=palm mute
