Tims Part in Crush

[chipper3344]

does anybody know what tim is playing during the chorus in Crush? (storytellers) i like his part better than daves.

I dont know it but your chances of someone telling you might be better if you post it in the guitar discussion area.

G--12---12---12---12---12---12---12---12--
D--10---12---10----9---10---12---10----9--
A---8---10---10---10----8---10---10---10--
D------------10----9-------------10----9--

..is what I used on the crush cover contest. And I don't think it sounds too great solo. And in case you don't realize it, land your pinky on the 12th/G and leave it there.

im pretty sure he plays an F, then a G, then a C, then a b thingy.

Code: Select all

E--0
B--3
G--0
D--0
A--2
E--x

then he does a little walk down, im not sure/could never figure out what he did right there so i just do a walk down starting at C on the A string and go

Code: Select all

A--3--2--
E---------5--3

right back into the F

after watching Storytellers, im 99% sure tim isn't playing in Drop D. im almost positive he's in standard.

[DJR]

yeah apps i think you're right, really looks like standard
btw how you doing apps?

[Appfro]

im good man, thanks for asking. ive had the flu for the last 4 days so that sucks, ive been hanging around trying to get some rest. other than that, not bad atall. can't complain.

i think he's in D.....he goes to town on some chord and stums like a mofo, right before a chorus, and i swear the open top string is low. not sure

[Coldchillin]

Yeah, me too. He gets a lowwww sounding thing and uses an effect, he ahs to be in D...

[Appfro]

if you'll remember, crush doesn't have any open D's in it. dave never hits the open D...when dave plays the 2xx32, in standard it would be 0xx32 which may make it sound lower than it is. it wouldn't make any sense that timmy would play an open D, it wouldn't sound right. also, when dave plays the 557 in "lovely lady" timmy is clearly grabbing a regular G and sliding up it up...he wouldn't be able to do that if he were in D. he goes 320003 and slides to a 540005 then back to the regular G. check out the storytellers video, it's the best way to see.

[DMBFan63]

crush does have an open D.. listen to the end jam at storytellers 0h2 then 2x44 xx24 is the part i mean..

[Appfro]

but im not really talking about the jam sessions. we're talking about the regular song and more specifically, the chorus. anyway, im pretty sure tim is in standard.

[Coldchillin]

I'll check it out again...

[Raif2032]

Tim IS in standard, and no, it sounds horrible solo. My best bud and I play it like the one on storytellers...if I get ambitious I might make a recording so you can listen, though it means you'd have to hear me sing
