I finally decided to release my tabs to the public (check the bottom for the
reason why I didn’t in the first place).

Tuning:Here is Stephen’s REAL tuning G#,C#,F#,B,E,G#,C#. Thats 4 1/2 steps down
from regular tuning and 2 1/2 steps down for 7 string. I play these on a regular
Guitar so I don’t have the extra C# but it still sounds 99-100% correct.

Verse
There are no open strings during the verse thats just Frank.

When Girls Telephone Boys
Tabbed By: Mateo

I have tabbed this song for a six string tuned to:

Drop> A#} F A# D# G C
Tun. Pattern. 7 5 5 4 5
I don’t mean to gloat, but this tab is perfect for this tuning. Just trust me.
This rythym in the chorus is great for intermediate learning. It includes
successive palm mutes and dotted half notes (actual HALF (1/2) of a note).
Listen closely, there are “discrepances” due to the tuning. The tuning sTeF
uses calls for many open strings to be strummed during the verse and bridge
(its a difference of negative 3 frets on the bottom 2 strings) so get someone
to overdub or something. In the meantime, just use the 1st and 2nd strings open.
Thats all you’ll need out of those two. This song is simple and so heavy.
I hope you enjoy.

Now, your equipment might not be capable of doing this (if the neck is bent
and fucked up, it won’t work)
The distortion is massive. Stefs using his Boss Hyper Fuzz.

I would also like to thank Nuno for running this site. Keep up the good work.

You can also play battle-axe (easy) in this tuning.

/ = Slide
* = play the same fret to this point >
. = palm mothafucka, like you never have before!
