>From: Pete Rihaczek Subject: n/nugent_ted/great_white_buffalo.tab >If you're looking for a Nuge riff, this is probably the one you want. >First cut at a transcription was posted by Dean Coss com>, however it was inaccurate and a bit unwieldy in position and >note choice. Nugent plays this as an open position pentatonic riff, >and uses open D and A chords. Besides being easier to play this way >when you're running around in a loin cloth, Nugent appeared as himself >on an episode of That 70's Show playing it this way, so I can guarantee >the open position fingering is correct. Don't use pull-offs for the >main descending riff, you want a chunkier sound, so coordinate the >pick and left hand index finger. It's a good riff, enjoy... > > >Great White Buffalo >By Ted Nugent > From the CD box set "Out of Control" >Transcription by Pete Rihaczek (pete.rihaczek@verizon.net) >Originally transcribed by Gtrboy77 > > >b = bend >p = pull off >. = rest note (pause) > >E D A > p >--------------------------2-2-3-2-----------p----------------------------- >--------------------------3-------3----2-2-3-2---------------------------- >--------------------------2---------2--2---------------------------------- >---2-.-2-0----------2-0---0------------2-------------Repeat--------------- >-----------2-0-------------------------0---------------------------------- >-0-------------3--0-----------------------------3------------------------- > b b > > >That's basically it. I've indicated a rest note with a "." to show the >timing of the riff, i.e. there is a slight pause after hitting the 4th >string 2nd fret E, and to draw attention to this point in the riff. On >the studio recording, the the rest note is sometimes replaced with a 2, >that is, play "2 2 2" instead of "2 pause 2". That's for the anal >retentive who want to play it absolutely note for note, and have a bit >more fun alternating the riff as done on the original recording. On the >Double Live Gonzo live version, Ted doesn't bother with this. Don't >forget to bend the low G note slightly for that authentic twang (and >don't forget the one right before the repeat). Play it loud, or don't >play it at all. :)
