Sober
Artist:TOOL
Off of the Undertow Album


Here is my correction of Bucky La Dieu's Sober Tab

Key:
/=slide
x=mute
s=slap
f=finger pinch note w/thumb and index finger

Dropped D tuning

Comments:
1)Boost the bass up a LOT, add some treble, and barely any mid.
2)Use chorus
*3)Use some light overdrive for a cool sound
