FU MANCHU - "squash that fly" Tablature

Official FU MANCHU Tablature & Sheet Music »

This is the tab for squash that fly by Fu Manchu. I am almost sure it’s all correct...
but I may have missed a couple of notes in the solo. You should tune your guitar to drop D
tuning to be able to play this song and 2 guitars would help too. It’s pretty much piss easy
aside from a few fiddly bits in the solo... this song rocks!! enjoy!!

Key:
*= palm mute
x= mute hit
\= slide
w= whammy bar
~= vibrato
h= Hammer on
p= pull off
b(x)= bend to(x)
