| Brain of J. |
| Pearl Jam - Yield |
| Tabbed by MWC <brainofj@iname.com> |
| Solo by Evan Cowan <icowan@marin.k12.ca.us> |
|
| All guitars drop 6th string E to a D |
|
| (Stone and Mike both play this one tuned down, but I have a standard |
| tuning version as well, scroll down to see it...) |
|
| Got this from John Clarke <hwoarang99@hotmail.com>: |
|
| This was in an issue of guitar world March 1998. |
| McCready: |
| "Like the guitar tone on "Brain of J," I was looking for a crazy effect |
| that I finally got by combining two guitar sounds. The really |
| menacing-sounding one involves a chorus and a wah wah pedal set halfway |
| down, and the other track is just a heavy, distorted guitar without any |
| effects on it." |
|
| Legend |
|
| ^ = slight bend |
| / = slide |
