BLUEPRINT OF THE FALL by Strung Out. Album : Exile In Oblivion(2003)
Man, this is the shit! Pretty challenging but once you got it, you won't be able
to stop playing this.. A word from the solo: I've seen how Jake plays this live.
This tab does not match his playing cause I've replased the notes to make this
easier to play. You can use hammer-on's and pull-off's, whatever suits you. Good
luck!
A=Jake B=Rob A&B=both
!tune your guitar one-step down!
