What Are the Guitar Riffs For the Last 3 Minutes of Deliverance?

[illbeleavinnow]

Does anyone know? There's no Deliverance tab at all on the net, band I don't mind but I really want to know the guitar riffs at the 10 minute mark of Deliverance.

Err, not tab, just notes. Excuse me for saying this, but tabs are for amateurs.

wow there's really nothing I can say that would make me look less stupid.

Hahaha...if tabs are for amateurs, then why is a pro like you having problems figuring out an *almost* one-chord riff?

Yeah, really. That's got to be one of Opeth's easiest passages to figure out just by ear.

I don't play guitar people. Lol. I play piano.

So that's probably why I can't figure it out.

The last 3 minutes is composed of 2 riffs. The first, and cooler one, is simply an E5 power chord played at different rhythms. It sounds like multiple notes because of how he hits the chord. The second part is that little lead melody with a continuously picked E note (2nd fret, D string). It's incredibly simple but sounds really great.

Then don't say that tabs are for amateurs. I've been playing guitar for 8 years and I can read music quite well...but with the way that a guitar is set up, tabs are much easier than sheet music.

When I play piano, I choose sheet music...it makes more sense. But tabs are so much better for guitar.

 

[illbeleavinnow]

Alright, I won't say it anymore, but all the musicians I know who play guitar share the same opinion.

I can agree with the fact that lots of guitar players feel that tabs are for amateurs, and to an extent I agree. I personally prefer figuring things out by ear, but for more complex stuff I will use tabs as a guide. I just think it's lame when a guitarist will use tabs for Green Day songs;p

I agree...it's more fun to figure things out.

BUT...when comparing tabs to sheet music, if I'm going to have to look something up that I can't figure out, tabs are clearly easier and more useful.

I much prefer proper music notation over tabs, it's much easier to read, and you get the bonus of having the rhythm indicated
And I do think tabs are for amateurs also, but then learning to read music takes a while, and rock music and suchlike is based around improvisation, so an ability to read music is not alot of use to many people. Proper music is so much easier though, when you're good at it.

Agreed.
