STAIND - "Its Been Awhile" Tablature
Official STAIND Tablature & Sheet Music »
this song is on a fiver tuned Ab Db Gb B E. THIS IS THE RIGHT WAY TO PLAY IT.
The only problem is when you add it to a song list (if your in a band) its diffucult to switch tunings. Youd have to have another bass set a side or play it with like tuned songs at end or beginning of set.
Use light touch that is the secret to playing this low.
BASS HOLDS UNTIL VOCALS START.
