KISS – God Of Thunder (Bass Tab)

Song: GOD OF THUNDER Artist: KISS Album: DESTROYER -------------------- Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, [email protected] Tuned down 1/2-step Comments: This was requested because there wasn't a good version available. I haven't seen the other versions bu this is the real deal. Gene plays simple stuff during the non-vocal parts and then throws in a rhythmic counterpoint during the verses. It's straight- forward, in the pocket, and simple. All in all it provides a good base of the guitar work. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum Rhythm Fig. 1
