Wondering if anyone wants to help me tab out this song? It's just a improvise acoustic jam. The song is from the Original 1990 Demo Tapes from blind melon. Not sure where you can listen to it at I just happen to find a download with all of them in it awhile ago. There's actually a few acoustical jams numbered 1 through 3. The one i'm workin on at the moment is the first one. I got the intro down sort of but the next riff i keep seeming to miss a note somewhere. I'll put up what i got so far probably tomorrow.

If it is one of the acoustic songs that were found on the "Final Pieces" bootleg... You'll have to down tune. I believe they turned the pitch down for those.

When did this bootleg become available? I recently broke my ipod and have been melonless since Nov 1 and I plan to have more melon than I did before on my new ipod. ( Im only missing the stuff from nels myspace page, and their b side album.) But this bootleg....I've never heard of it.

My bad guys, I've been real busy lately, got so much new recording gear for guitar been busy learning all the new computer savy stuff for it.
Yeah the songs are probably tuned down or something, cause I couldn't seem to figure out the next part but then again I suck at tabbing stuff. It usually just comes naturally and sometimes for songs i don't even like. ha I'm not sure if you can download it anywhere, I own all the albums so I just downloaded a Torrent Discography of blind melon and it came with the extra rare songs you could say.

It's actually the speed (pitch change) that's turned down for some of the acoustic jams. But, yea... It's hard to know which song you are talking about. What is the exact time of the song (minute:seconds) .. I'll try to help find it.

Ok... yea, the pitch change is turned down quite a bit. I'll try and speed it up to the normal speed... which will let allow you to learn it by ear... Since it will be tuned back to 4-40.

The pitch change is down 1 1/2 semitones.....and it seems to be a dropped tuning because of the slide element.
without actually learning it yet..my first step would be tune to
Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
or just drop D pitched down a half step
hope that helps

I had fun trying to get this file to normal speed... I think this is right... Brad's voice is very distict. For the hell of it, I sped it up so they all sounded like chipmunks. But here is (I think) the normal speed... It may not be at the exact speed.. But, it'll help you learn it by ear, much better than the lower pitch change version we have. www.12Daze.com/downloads/Track051up.mp3PS - The reason why I think this speed is close, is because of Brad's voice. I didnt actually check to see if its in 440 tune. CA-CA-COW!

This is what i got so far for the intro. I'm playing HalfStep down from standard. So I'm sure there's totally a different way of playing this in a different tuning.
E||--0----0----0---------|--3----0---------0----|--0--------------------| B||--0----3----0---------|--0----0---------3----|--0---------0----0----| G||--1----1----1---------|--1----1---------1----|--1---------2----1----| D||--2----2--------------|--2--------------2----|-------------2----2----| A||--2--------------------|-----------------------|------------------------| E||--0--------------0-----|------------0----------|-------0---------------|
sorry about the uneven bars, not sure how to fix that. lol
