Effects: Fuzz and reverb.
One of my favorite Black Keys songs. Finger picked all the way, so forget using that pick.
As you probably know, a slide is used in the main riff. Make sure to use your muting
techniques to properly isolate the slides. If you don't know what I'm talking about,
or the slides just aren't sounding right, send me a message and I can help you out.
Don't hesitate. I'm on here pretty much everyday and could get back to you. Also,
there are plenty of vids and articles online demonstrating proper muting technique.
Comment or message any ideas or corrections.
Please rate my tab.
Key:
