Widowmaker - W.A.S.P. - Guitar Fun

I Love W.A.S.P.
This is my favourite song of theirs, just an Epic.
It was a challenge to learn and fun to play.
Do you like W.A.S.P.? Let me know.
Enjoy this Epic song... I do!

Nice cover, well done. Hope you cover more of their tunes, they have plenty of good songs. Their debut album is a classic.....WASP is my fav band.

[@trench_runner]

Thank you. I will do more of their songs. I love WASP. 🤘🤘

@@trench_runner You say in the description that it was a challenge to learn.....You seem quite proficient on guitar, how long did it take you to learn it?

[@trench_runner]

@@michaeldelaveris3322 I'd say a couple of days. There are no tabs to learn it from that I could find.
Once I worked out the tuning, which is E flat (with the drop step on the the low E). Then it was just a process of elimination to work out the parts.
Then I rehearsed it for a week and did the video.

[@Haddley333]

@@trench_runner i swear the tuning for this song is Db Gb Cb Fb Ab Db. Or at least that very first string that hit is the Db. I've been looking everywhere for this tab and everyone has been way off lol so when I finally tuned my heavy string to Db and hit it same time it finally seemed to match.

[@trench_runner]

@@Haddley333 Hey John, you could be right. I know that most WASP songs are in Eb, then I dropped the low string down a step. My tuning for Widowmaker is Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb. The Db allows me to play the intro.

[@choppertownusa]

what tuning is than in. e Flat ?

[@trench_runner]

Tuning for my Widowmaker video is Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb. The Db allows me to play the intro. WASP are usually tuned Eb for most songs, but I also wanted to play the intro.
