Straight to Hell Solo
By Great Big Sea
transcribed by zapp7
This is one of my favorite songs to play with friends. The solo in the
actual song is a mandolin so I decided to figure out the solo by ear for the
guitar. This was accomplished by playing the song at 50% speed in windows
media player and working out each note. The notes that repeat themselves one
after the other are played very quickly on the mandolin, so you can vary
this if you wish.
