Tonight I felt it was about time to tab out some Swanö monster riffs. I hope some happy amateurs like myself out there will enjoy them! Please note that this is just how I believe they are played, as adapted by listening. Dan plays his own upsidedowntwistedkindaway, so please dont expect these tabs to be 100% accurate.

Enough words, lets get to the riff stage! Have fun, and please comment mine or post your own tabs in this thread anytime you like. I may add some more later on..

btw, what guitar you own?
Click to expand...

Yamaha Pacifica 302S Telecaster and Yamaha FGX-413SC acoustic. I totaly enjoy them both, thin necks and easy to play, they give me much more control over my play and tighter sound than what I`ve been used to with my old fender strat. and Morgan acoustic.

You?

Pssj.. My telecaster didnt cost me more than 400$ either, still I think it`s a great instrument. The way I look at it, the tone is mostly in the fingers of the player. Of course the craftsmenship put into making the instrument counts, but I think it`s overrated. I would recommend the 302S to anyone who wants to take control of their sound, because its so easily played, and it sounds good aswell. No vib-system on it, so it is not a guitar for Janick Gers and his comrades. I guess its not the guitar you would want to show up with if you want people to go "WOW, thats one helluva cool guitar you`ve got there", but I prefer to play this easy-goin` cheap fellow and rather weigh it up by making some cool guitar-faces and placing my legs as widely away from each other as possible :lol:

In this riff, the E and D string are stroked at the same time, make sure the A string thats in between them is silenced with the same two fingers that hold the chords, can be a bit tricky the first times..

Hmm..just noticed something. Dag, did you put some occult hidden message into this one back when you wrote it? I mean, look at the tab.. :lol:
 
I'd like to play the beginning of Revival like this:

|-0-0----2-3----2-
|-0-0-3------3----

instead of:

|-0-0----0-1----0-
|-0-0-3------3----

...is it just me?
