Shouldn't that 2nd hammer-on be on the B string?


EDIT: he fixed it now ;)

But he does hammer the 1 on the high E string in the intro.... the tab was perfect the way you had it, just watch that gravedigger video from alpine, and listen, he most definitely hits the 1 on the high E.

It's funny because I first had the tab as on the high e...then I listened when Fraggle said something and HEARD it on the A......but I could be wrong again.....I don't have speakers right now but when I get em I'll check it out again. It's wierd that I heard it 2 different ways 2 different times....I'll sit down w/ my guitar and get it right.....sorry for the confusion....peace

the best video I think to figure out how he plays gravedigger is Farm Aid 02. The Hammer is on the B string.

man the video is not up anymore, it was an svcd video from alpine, really really close up and high quality, i have it saved on my dads laptop. but anyways, i'm sure that on that night when he played gravedigger during the intro he played the one on the e string, he only did it once or twice during the intro, it may have even been a fuck up, i think it fits the progression though. anyways look around for that video, all disagreements about notes aside, its a kick ass video of a kick ass song. if you cant find it hit me up on aim or something.
