Lightning Bolt - ASSASINS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, this is my tab of "Assasins" by Lightning Bolt off of Wondeful Rainbow
The tuning used for Brian Gibsons Bass is C,G,D,A (the same as a cello).
He uses a banjo string for the A string, up to you if you want to do that I
guess! If you snap a string tuning the Bass up, don't blame me!!!
Riff1:
A ------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D ------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G -0-0-0-12-12-0-0-12-12-0-0-12-12-0-0-0----------------------------------|
C ---------------------------------------4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7--|
At some point, this whole thing goes up an octave in pitch, I think
Brian just uses a whammy pedal to do that!
Riff2: This gets repeated quite a lot
A ----------------------------------|
D ----------------------------------|
G ----------------------------------|
C -4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7--|
Riff3: A slight variation of the above
A ----------------------------------|
D -2-------3-------4-------5--------|
G ----------------------------------|
C -4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7--|
Riff4: Quick Bridge
A ---------------------------------------------------|
D -2-------3------/4-------5-------------------------|
G ---------------------------------------------------|
C -4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5/6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7--/--12---\--------|
Riff5:
A ---------------------------------------------------|
D ---------------------------------------------------|
G ---------------------------------------------------|
C -4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5/6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7--/--12---\--------|
After a while he uses the Whammy pedal to take the slide to the
12th fret an octave higher.
Outro:
This is played 8 times in total,
A -----------------------------------|
D -----------------------------------|
G -----------------------------------|
C -4-5-5-5-/--12----4-5-5-5-/--12----|
Followed by a couple of seconds gap, then
A -----------------------------------|
D -----------------------------------|
G -12-12-12-12-----------------------|
C -12-12-12-12-----------------------|
