Hook Line And Sinner


By: Brian Benzinger Tuning: Drop C Hi, I tabbed this song a few months ago by ear after listening to these guys live and really impressed. I've actually tabbed most of their other songs, too, but they're not complete. A lot of this song is just chugging away open strings, so I tried to make it as exact as to help with the timing. Check this, it's probably about 98% correct. //Edit 7-7-2010\\ Read your suggestions, fixed minor errors and completely rewrote (J) - should now be near perfect A)Intro |----------------------------|
