Notes From John
The lead side of John’s Rhythm/Lead chart, in E minor at BPM = 187 in 6/8. A clean let-ring intro, then distorted melody lines high on the neck, pinch harmonics, a run climbing to the 23rd fret, and an outro of full bends at the 22nd fret.
For the player
The clean intro rings slowly, then the distortion comes in and the melody sits high on the neck; hit it cold when the 6/8 starts. Pick the melody notes evenly, let the pinch harmonics squeal, and get the outro bends fully up to pitch before adding vibrato. At BPM = 187 the job is the feel.
