Biffy Clyro – Flammable (Guitar Live Tab)
Auto-scroll
Speed:
1.0x
This is my first tab, and after looking at others elsewhere, I felt the need to make one much closer to what
is actually played. Yes it is in E Standard tuning, not Drop C (unusual for Biffy Clyro, I know) but after
watching several videos of Biffy Clyro playing this, I feel I made the closest version possible. I may update
later with Mike Vennart's (touring/lead guitarist) parts. Enjoy!
P.S. The solo is partly what I could see in videos, partly my understanding of it. So the notes are accurate,
but the strings it's played on may not be.
