ARTIST: Chevelle
ALBUM: Vena Sera
SONG: "Antisaint"
TRANSCRIBER: Shaun Jackson (shaun.jackson1@hotmail.com)
TUNING: Drop-D (D A D G B E)
NOTES: This is the opening track of Chevelle's upcoming release on 4/3/07. This song is
featured on the game MLB 07: The Show. I am aware that
the song is not offically played in Drop-D tuning by Pete Loeffler, but
it can effectively be played in such tuning with just a slight
improvisation during the bridge. I also left out the 20 seconds or so of pickscrapes at
end. Not the easiest thing to tab. The first section of each verse is only played on
so there is nothing to tab for guitar there. I also added in lyrics here and there to
with timing. Please pay attention to where the "^" is located as that denotes exactly
the lyrics start in sync with the tab. I think that takes care of everything, if you
any questions or comments feel free to e-mail me. Enjoy!

its definately not played in drop d...but your tab looks right on. good job
What's the tuning then?
If it was Drop C it would be easier...
Pete probably uses Drop-B for this song. Drop-C wouldn't change a thing, 'cause you need to hit a low B5 chord in the bridge. D# is the lowest he goes besides that. So with just improvising the open B5 chord to a higher B5 chord, the rest can be played above D.
Heh, I insist on drop-D in a lot of songs mainly because my Ibanez RG has the Floyd Rose locking tremolo - which prevents the guitar from being tuned much lower than Drop-D. But hey, it works for this song.
