Song: BLACK DIAMOND Artist: KISS Album: KISS -------------------- Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, kfemil@telia.com Tuned down 1/2-step Comments: There are a couple of slides from the 3rd fret, 4th string notated here. They should be rammed all the way up the fingerboard. Just go till there's no place left to go, then head down for the rest of the riff. Key: / = slide up = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato *
