Alter Bridge - Home Extra Track from 'ABIII' tuning - Standard down 3 frets (C# F# B E G# C#) tabbed by jjhand This track has a great acoustic line that catches you off guard with the off-beat rhythms & droning notes. The lead guitar work was also great, making this one of the best tracks on ABIII (not sure why its a bonus track) Please Rate or Comment.
