    Tips And Comments:
    Playing Technique: Played next to the bridge pickup, middle strength, crescendo on choruses. Neck pickup, full tone
    Gear Sound: Added some treble and a little high mids
    About The Song: Ghost notes should be played not on a very high level, just use them to keep on rhythm and maybe play them a little more on second verses. Transcribed from studio version with help of live videos and isolated track. I watched lots of live videos and positions of playing are changed through time. I went with the ones use in older videos
    Need more tips? Just comment!

    Remember the P.M means "palm mute", you just have to rest the side of your hand on the strings while playing, you can control the amount of muting by applying more or less pressure. Any other question you can ask on the comments

  • @kane00000

    Nice job. Also nice positioning of the fingers. I think us experienced players take using which fingers to use during a riff for granted. What I mean is like using your pointer finger, middle finger, or ring finger to lead into the riff. It's actually pretty crazy when you think about all of the things we do when we play songs (having good tone, timing, hand coordination, etc). If anyone wants to have the best time of their life I recommend picking up an instrument and finding some people to jam with. It's almost like going on a vacation. And if you get good enough to play some shows it's the craziest thing to see people boogying to the music you are playing. Best feeling.

    Great job.. I’ve been following you for a while now.. I love how your so comfortable with the pick and finger playing.. I was always against using a pick but I’ve recently been working on using one.. there are just so many songs out there where you can tell one is being used.. sometimes you can finger play some of them but other songs just don’t sound the same without the pick.. thank you for all the time you spend putting these videos together you do a great job... have a great day...

    I'm sure almost noone will be reading this comment, but the ghost notes in this song are kinda interesting. In the original recording, they are definitely audible, but in pretty much every tab book in which the song is featured, they are absent. If you look up live performances of the song, Sting is also not seen playing them. I'm honestly really confused about this situation with such a small detail.
