Main riff?! Hmmmm, that's an interesting term.....but for some reason I don't think it applies to Crimson!!! Though I think the song could be easily tabbed, it's actually pretty simple, just long. And excellent!
 
Yeah, someone on the Opeth board wanted the tabs for it a while back, I had a look at it. It's not too hard, but someone really needs to figure out what tuning they're using, otherwise everyone's tabs would be different......

oh, btw: if you wanna divide up time frames for everyone, you can count me in, so long as there's more than 3 of us.
 
A Crimson tab would be more than great.

The tuning is A, pretty low.

Playing on a standard tune guitar with the Astring as the base is +oneoctave from the original.

Might be drop-A or something, but I don't think so.
 
Really? odd tuning? I use drop-d to play along with the record, but it is clear that the low string is below there somewhere. A lot of parts are played in D though.

I just discovered this song recently and the only tab I could find for it was confusing as fuck, howre things coming along with this? can you post what you have so far? :D
 
heh, this is a really old thread :D
I don't think anyone did anything on it, I certainly didn't and if anyone did they didn't post it here ;)

Yes, I realise that I just transcribed the entire Bloodbath album, but no, I am not transcribing Crimson by myself ;) :p
