  • Hello GMC'ers! In this lesson I'm going to cover Pantera's "Floods". I'll be covering the solo and outro sections of the song. I tuned my guitar to standard C#. Try to listen and figure out the little nuances and details (vibratos, pinch harmonics etc.) in it. On a technical level it is one of the easier songs, but then again, don’t forget that it is DIMEBAG! The 20th of August was Darrell Lance Abbot's (Dimebag) birthday so I would like to dedicate this lesson to him.

    I recorded the lesson with my Line 6 UX1, and I can send the patches for those who’d like get these tones that I’ve used.

    * Give feedback (upper-right-corner)

    Tuning:
    * C# - F# - B - E- G# - C#

    Techniques:

    * Hammer-ons
    * Pull-offs
    * Pinch Harmonics
