That's cool, although I don't play the guitar so it doesn't do much for me.  Cool for all aspiring guitarists out there though.

[Voodoochild]

Wow, that's fucking cool. I'd love to buy that one, for sure.

Is this an official release from the band? The cover looks like the new version of the album.

[AdZ]

Exciting times

[gunns1]

sounds exciting indeed, im not a guitar player, but good luck to anyone who can master the end guitar solo in twat.

[Dr. Blutarsky]

I'll be gettin that, though it make take me a year to master those songs. It's a bit more technical than, say Green Day....

the music in tab books are transcribed by guitarists/employees of whoever makes the book...Most tab books are pretty close if not dead on when it comes to transcribing music.  The band/label has to sign off on it to be made though I believe.

[GNR4L]

When is the release date for the tab book ?

[gnrjanus]

Finally I can get my RHiad better , or Scraped.. the hardest songs on the album for sure!

[The Glow Inc.]

Holy shit !
Now I've found what to do all summer 

Thanks for sharing the info !

[jacdaniel]

Thats really cool!  Unfortunately my les paul doesnt have a whammy bar lol, and some of the other sounds seem like they'd be hard to pull off.
Maybe its been released especially for DJ to practise lol

I'm still relatively new to guitar but I'm looking forward to having a crack at this!

Good luck, 

Of all the solo's on the album, This I love sounds like the the easiest to play.

Les Paul owner are you now?

Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm looking at you Voodoo and AdZ), but I have not encountered any instances of the whammy being used on the Guns N' Roses 2008 release "Chinese Democracy."

Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm looking at you Voodoo and AdZ), but I have not encountered any instances of the whammy being used on the Guns N' Roses 2008 release "Chinese Democracy."

I was thinking hard myself, but i was more reffering to some of the sounds in general.

And yes, ya can never go wrong with a les paul/marshall!  like zakk says, you see these guys in music stores saying "This amp sounds like a vintage marshall".  So why not just fucking buy a marshall then?

14.?Prostitute?: ?Prostitute? goes from hushed verses to a towering chorus washed in guitars and theatrical orchestration making it a fitting closer. It?s not clear who Rose is directing the lyrics to when he sings, ?Oh, I saw the damage in you, my fortunate one, the ending of you,? but the intent is there, seething right below the surface. There is some whammy-bar assisted bombast towards the final seconds that comes out of nowhere but somehow works in the scheme of the song. So just like that, Chinese Democracy comes to and end.

[Voodoochild]

Not whammy bar, but the actual whammy pedal effect (also used by Buckethead in several other songs like Chinese, Shacklers, Riad...). So, your Les Paul would do just fine in all songs except the ones with Bumblefoot's fretless guitar (tho you can still pull it off).

I know, I was asking if the band agreed.

Finally I can get my RHiad better , or Scraped.. the hardest songs on the album for sure!

This guy did an amazing job in Riad riff and first half of Ron's solo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUuR30muf3g

And this one in Scraped riff, tho it needs some work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kvy7VO_TTc

sounds exciting indeed, im not a guitar player, but good luck to anyone who can master the end guitar solo in twat.

Not all that hard, I think. Good luck to master Riad solos, tho.

Of all the solo's on the album, This I love sounds like the the easiest to play. 

I don't think all those bends is all that easy to pull it off 100%. I'd say the easiest ones are Robin's solo in TWAT and Bucket outro in SOD.

Thanks for your wonderful guitar input Voodoo!

I have a tab book for all the old songs and I notice that all the RIFFS are tabbed basically the same as Slash/Izzy played em.  But the SOLO'S were different.  Slash seemed to play them in different positions than tabbed in the book. 
Particularily Civil War, Jungle and estranged.  Hard to explain with showing though

This i love solo.  It looks pretty accurate enough although i dont have guitar in hand so cant really be sure.

Actually, im sure there is a tab section on this board were i could link to some of these pages if people are interested?

I also have tab books for all the old songs, yet they are not for my benefit, I do not play either, but my husband is an avid guitar collector, I believe he has about 35 in collection, his fave being a 1962 Chet Atkins Gretch Nashville, needless to say I will be adding the new book to the collection, great news Voodoo and thanks .
