I think Viv is becoming the hardest guitarist I have tried to emulate with some of his incredibly speedy legato licks. I was wanting to do this for a long time and I had to keep coming back when my left hand had built up more strength. Sublime song! Certainly what I think is the best of the Viv era and it was such a joy to re-learn and play along to this live version. From the excellent broadcast of the bands performance at KOKUSAI INTERNATIONAL FORUM in Tokyo. Viv's solo is killer and I love getting a chance to play the outro rhythm too! :)
Tuned to Eb.

My headphones are purposely like that so the cable stays out the way.
I have a Patreon where I upload my notation notes for all my new covers and I am going through my old ones too. But I also provide custom notation and video lessons content there or at my [email protected] address. Please get in touch if you want help playing the music you love. / bwm5150
