i've been learning to play the intro to OSW, the one dave plays with the full band. i listen to the audio clip on this site, and then play it using the same tab, yet it sounds different. more specifically, the section with the 0h1p0 on the G string. when i play it, it just doesnt sound right. any suggestions/tips?

I play the intro along with the recording using the tab from this website. I find it flows pretty nicely actually.

OSW intro is probably the hardest thing I've tried to learn to date. I finally gave up and decided to try later! Good Luck!!

It's one of the most enjoyble things to play that dave wrote, imo.

That's what I do. I used to do 0h1p0 with out hitting the string again, but it didn't sound right at all. Then I tried hitting the open string twice, and it sounds so much better. It's very fluid now.

You just have to keep on practicing it. Find a dave solo version, or atleast a very mellow version and it'll totally help out. I'm pretty sure the tab on the site is accurate.

I agree. I definetely have to play that song, usually everyday when i'm playing/practicing.

Does anyone know if timmy wrote the intro?

i'm pretty sure Tim wrote it. i think it was written as a finger exercise.

i don't know if this helps at all, but if you want i did a recording of crash, if you dl it, and skip all the way to the end i put a quick little version of OSW instro. its not perfect, but it was a first try and if you think it might help, dl away http://www.angelfire.com/blog/gravesrr7 ... ixdown.mp3

it isn't Tim style for that type of tune. I am sure Tim didn't write it. Maybe he helped Dave do it, but it is not a solo Tim tune. Take it from a big Tim Reynolds fan, it is not Tim's style, and there would have been jam improv parts in it. It's a looping single note type of tune that Dave is famous for.

Also, it's laughable (no offense to anyone) to bea finger excersize. A finger excersize would be far less notes, and something to repeate quickly to drill into your brain. The placements are so vast and odd that it isn't a finger excersize. Satelite is likely to have been (as it is told) since it focuses on a stretch and takes place ina general area, and the looping quickly drills in your brain.

i remember someone on these boards saying that they thought it was a figer exercise tim wrote. and i just took to as the truth. guess i'm wrong.

Back to the original question....I thought the same thing when i started to learn it. Try playing 0h1 0 instead of 0h1p0 and see how it sounds to you. I.E., don't pull off to the open sting, pick it instead. I think that's the way it's played...at least that's what I hear. Give it a shot and see what you think.

I'm almost 100% sure tim wrote it as a warm up excercise for the band when he was with them often
