it’s my favourite j solo, can’t figure it out
Sorry dude… afraid I’m just not good enough to figure that out, plus I don’t have decent wah…. I will defientely have a go at it this weekend though but not promising anything

I think it would be pretty hard to understand the tab too with all the foot pedal parts to follow etc…. Definetly one of my fav J solos, along with Sludgefeast

Well It would be cool to see them to get this more accurateHey, sorry about not replying sooner, I forgot about it, I’ll try sometime, maybe like a week or two. I took all the strings off my guitar so I would do some work
April 9, 2006 at 2:42 pm #113705Man, someone please help with that Freak Scene intro / main chords!
Okay, it’s a D (with the "A" on the fifth fret), then Em with some kind of move to the F# (D string, 4th fret), then a slide up to fifth fret A (with open A and open high E ringing out) that is later modified by adding F# (seventh fret B string), then J moves _up_ the neck (you can see it in the vids) for the last notes/chord.
It sounds so simple when you hear it, but all the tabs (and even the version of that guy’s band playing it) lack the Em – F# mod and the last chord.
I’ve slowed it down (w/software) and played it a million times.
I’ve downloaded different versions by J and others.
I’ve watched the vids.Yet, it stil doesn’t sound right.
Someone should ask J or find a Guitar mag tab or something… Has anyone figured this out? The "Little Fury Things" tab is great and sounds fantastic. If I could play a full "Freak Scene" I would be very happy!
Any help appreciated.
April 9, 2006 at 3:39 pm #113706I’ve also looked at all the videos and I’m still not 100% sure how to play it…. I think I’ve tried almost every chord possible
I can’t believe there isn’t a good tab for it as it seems to be one of the most popular dinosaur songs (not mine). Well here’s my effort, it can’t be too far off…. I might have ago at the solo now so if I get anywhere I’ll post it[pre]Freakscene

[/pre]April 9, 2006 at 4:48 pm #113707Heres the first solo and I’m quite shocked that I managed to figure it out….. the only parts that were hard is where you can’t hear what’s being played clearly but I’m pretty sure it’s all right and if not you should be able to improvise round the notes that are there anyway. Hope this helps

excellent job on the solo

I know what you mean about that part, I was playin it the other day and i think it sounds better hittin the 7th fret insted of the 5th on the E string. Have a go at that and see if you think it sounds better…. hopefully when i go see them i’ll video j playin that part
April 14, 2006 at 1:00 pm #113710Alice:
Cool – looks good. I was inspired by your work to combine our work into a more complete tab. Parts that are changed:
Main riff, Heavy Riff, Middle Eight…actually, all of it is at least a bit different.
I also added the lyrics, and pasted in your solo. The font is 9pt. Monaco for correct spacing.
I hope someone can use this. I still am wondering about the chord in the main riff though (the second "D").
Anyone have some changes / suggestions?thanks,
brainiac
