Tabbed by Harry Grassom, performed by Jeff Beck in Emotion and Commotion. If you find
any errors or improvements email harry.ipodtouch@googlemail.com
For the most authentic 'Jeff sound', play with standard tuning, high gain and treble,
low mid and medium bass. Use a short (approx 30.0ms) delay with low feedback and level,
with an overdrive stomp and touch of reverb. Play on the neck pickup with low tones and
use the volume knob to control gain.
The intro is played with a wah pedal and is different everytime jeff plays it, but
revolves around all the notes tabbed below for the remainder of the song. This tab
starts at
0:38 of the album track.
